Circles are the foundation of many geometric concepts and extensions - a point that is thoroughly driven home in this extensive unit. Fundamental properties of circles are investigated (including sector area, angle measure, and...

For this identifying solid figures worksheet, students name each solid figure, write the number of faces, vertices, and edges, and solve a word problem. Students solve seven problems.

A chart in this activity prompts students to list the number of faces, vertices, and edges in each of five shapes. Additionally, students provide the number of faces that meet at each vertex as well as the number of sides of each face....

Compare geometric solids based on their properties. Your emergent geometers use spaghetti and marshmallows to build models so they can examine the number of faces, edges, and vertices on polyhedra of their own creation. Resource includes...

Reinforce basic geometry skills in an elementary math lesson. A simple instructional activity prompts learners to identify and label 3-D shapes.

In this sides, faces, vertices and edges instructional activity, students determine the number of each shown in given shapes. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this three-dimensional shapes geometry instructional activity, learners identify geometric solids and name their properties. They define "face," "edge," and "vertex," and construct geometric solids using marshmallows as vertices and...

A geometry game that resembles Battleship is the foundation for hide and seek where "hiders" draw shapes on coordinate planes and "seekers" must guess the shape and its location based on questions and clues. Reproducible, paper-sized...

Fourth graders examine faces, edges, and vertices. In this geometry lesson, 4th graders participate in classroom activities that require them to compare geometric shapes, figures, and models.

For this shapes worksheet, students write how many sides, faces, edges and vertices are found on given shapes, 4 total. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

Practice analyzing shapes using this shape breakdown worksheet. Your scholars examine 2 shapes and 2 figures, identifying the number of faces, vertices, edges, and sides each has. The instructions remind students that an answer of "0" is...

Watch as matrices break networks down into rows and columns! Individuals learn how a network can be represented as a matrix. They also identify the notation of matrices.

In this finding patterns in pyramids and prisms worksheet, 4th graders use two tables showing faces, edges and vertices for pyramids and prisms to answer six questions about the patterns.

Learners compare and contrast two dimensional polygons and three dimentional nets by examining the differences in drawings. They create three dimensional shapes and label the faces, edges, and vertices. After creating the shapes, they...

In this interactive lesson, students review attributes of equilateral polygons. They are introduced to the concept of a tessellation. Using protractors and pre-cut shapes, students arrange a variety of tiles to create tessellations. They...

Students explore graph theory.  In this geometry lesson,  graphs are used to solve problems in a variety of domains.  In this lesson the term graph refers to a collection of vertices and edges used to depict...

Logical thinking is at the forefront of this jam-packed lesson, with young mathematicians not only investigating geometric concepts but also how they "know what they know". Through each activity and worksheet, learners wrestle with...

Creating with an app is nice. But, creating with an app and being able to print and use your creation is great! This tool provides the opportunity to hone the skills related to spacial awareness, three-dimensional thinking, creativity,...

This heady calculus text covers the subjects of differential and integral calculus with rigorous detail, culminating in a chapter of physics and engineering applications. A particular emphasis on classic proof meshes with modern graphs,...

In this faces, edges, and vertices worksheet, students write how many faces, edges, and vertices each shape has. Students complete this for 2 plane shapes and 2 2D shapes.

In this fraction instructional activity, students manipulate paper by folding it to create different shapes and sizes, they explore the concept of fractions, and discuss their observations as a class. This is a great instructional...

Middle schoolers work to find and reinforce concepts related to lines and angles. They identify the characteristics of shapes that have one, two, and three dimensions. The students also work on definitions related to the geometry of shapes.

Young scholars explore geometric solids. In this geometry lesson, students listen to the book The Greedy Triangle by Marilyn Burns, then work in groups to sort geometric solids into various categories. Young scholars define geometric...

Students identify the parts of three dimensional objects. In this geometry lesson plan, students find the number of faces, edges and vertices. They differentiate between prisms and polyhedra.
