Bring three-dimensional shapes to life in your classroom. First introduce the vocabulary of three-dimensional shapes, such as sphere, cube, and pyramid. Then, show your kids examples of how to use two-dimensional objects draw...

Second graders create symmetrical butterfly wings. In this symmetry lesson, 2nd graders observe butterfly wings and create their own. They make both sides symmetrical and mix primary colors to make secondary colors. 

Second graders find the lines of symmetry in pattern blocks and alphabet letters. In this symmetry lesson plan, 2nd graders discuss what symmetry is, view examples of lines of symmetry and apply what they have learned by finding the line...

Second graders demonstrate understanding of symmetry and identify objects that have symmetry. They use a mirror to get a visual illustration of what symmetry is. They create a collage of symmetrical pictures they find in magazines.

Students explore symmetry in architecture.  In this cross curriculum art  and architecture lesson, students fold paper to illustrate symmetry and identify symmetrical and asymmetrical shapes.  Students observe photographs...
