Lines of Symmetry
Drawing lines of symmetry helps scholars understand shape attributes, basic fractions, and equality. They determine how many lines each of these nine shapes has, using an example as reference. Consider having learners cut out a set of...
Curated OER
Symmetry
These symmetrical shapes are only half-completed, so scholars finish them by drawing the other side of the line of symmetry. Because your class won't recognize these abstract shapes, they will get authentic practice with this objective....

Area, Perimeter and Volume
Develop young mathematicians' knowledge of two- and three-dimensional shapes with this geometry workbook. From learning about the classifications of different shapes and figures to calculating their area, perimeter, and volume, this...
Curated OER
Symmetry
Enhance your geometry lesson by working with shapes. Fourth graders follow lines of symmetry to complete ten shapes, most of them currently triangles. Have pupils color each half of their shapes to reinforce the idea of symmetry!

Magical Maths
A variety of activities take scholars outside the classroom to explore shapes, symmetry, measurement, patterns, sorting, and time in nature. Learners participate individually, and in teams, to measure found objects, go on a scavenger...
Curated OER
Line Symmetry
Students investigate the concept of line symmetry and how to recognize it in different contexts. They record the number of symmetries when given problems to work on in class. They review the concept of congruence and how it relates to...

Symmetry Using Polygons
Working on symmetry in your class? If so, this worksheet might be for you. Learners observe different triangles and quadrilaterals, determine which are symmetrical, draw in the lines of symmetry, and color the symmetrical shapes. In...
Curated OER
Facial Symmetry
Learners study facial symmetry. They explore lines of symmetry, and create illustrations with multiple lines of symmetry.
Curated OER
Symmetry - English Learners 17.4
Upper graders solve four multiple choice problems where they determine if figures are symmetric and determine lines of symmetry.
Curated OER
Exploring Symmetry
Students use a software program to create artwork and to manipulate images to study mirror and rotational symmetry. They take pictures of items in their environment in which they identify symmetry.
Curated OER
Line or Bilateral Symmetry
In this problem solving instructional activity, 4th graders figure out how many lines of symmetry 6 Greek alphabet letters have. Students write each number and draw the line or lines on the lines provided.
