2-D and 3-D Presents at Pedro's Party

Challenge young mathematicians' ability to compose and decompose shapes with this open-ended geometry problem. Given that a polygon has a certain area and is made up of two different rectangles, students must draw and label the...

Thoroughly assess young mathematicians' understanding of volume and cubic units with this five question quiz. Including a variety of questions, this assessment asks students to calculate the volume of cubes and rectangular prisms, as...

Add some visual support to your elementary geometry lessons with this set of printable shape cards. From triangles and squares to octagons and nanogons, this simple resource can be used in countless ways to develop children's knowledge...

This collaborative activity investigates the meaning of a trapezoid and a parallelogram. It begins by presenting two different definitions of a trapezoid. Learners are to reason abstractly the difference between the two definitions and...

A hands-on activity uses the Zome modeling system, and helps young geometers either learn or review their knowledge of polygons. Students build as many different 2-dimensional polygons as possible: triangle, square, rectangle, pentagon,...

Elementary schoolers explore 3-D shapes. They transition from thinking of shapes as only 2-D. Pupils read Cinderella as a launching activity for their upcoming adventure, and explore a new world of 3-D shapes in this introductory lesson.

In this two-digit divisors worksheet, 5th graders divide the equations using two-digit divisors. In the first set, students estimate the quotients and write the compatible numbers they used. In the second set, students divide using two...

This long division PowerPoint presents a pneumonic device in which the first initial of generic family members names corresponds with the first initial of the proper steps to follow when solving a long division problem with a two-digit...

A really useful resource contains 116 slides covering basic geometric concepts related to 2-D or plane shapes. Shape properties, translations, reflections, congruence, symmetry, and grid work are all laid out in a comprehensive and...

Show your class all the hard work you have put into their lesson by showing this PowerPoint presentation. They will not only be proud of you, but it will help them solve multiplication and division word problems using the algorithms.
