The Greedy Triangle - Group Activity

How do we sort shapes? Using an extensive collection of cut-out shapes, your young scholars challenge themselves to sort and organize based on various attributes. A template is provided with forty-nine shapes, which you cut out for...

Young mathematicians are on their feet and moving around in this primary grade sorting activity. After giving each child an object or picture card, they then sort themselves into groups, counting to see which has the most or least...

Learning that size and orientation don't affect the classification of shapes is a big step for young mathematicians. Support children with developing this key understanding by looking at the array of shapes included in this resource. For...

Students explore geometry by drawing various shapes in class. For this triangle characteristics lesson, students identify the attributes that classify a shape as a triangle and practice using their bodies to create triangles in class....

The Golden Ratio. The Divine Proportion. Yup. It's math and art blended into one colorful activity. Young artists combine colored tissue paper circles and parts of circles to create geometric patterns. As a bonus, kids get to figure out...

A collection of two lessons, kindergartners will identify two-dimensional shapes in solid shapes. They will develop basic knowledge of the components that make up a sphere, rectangular prism, pyramid, cylinder, cone, and cube. Young...

Jump start children's math education with this fun basic skills resource. Offering dozens of different touch-and-swipe activities with colorful graphics, this program is perfect for all young learners.

Young geometers engage in this fine lesson which has them use 45 and 90 degree angles to create triangles. The goal of this lesson is to have learners see the relationship between angles and the shape of a triangle. They design a...

Students explore and identify the characteristics of triangles. They take a walk around their school and record and draw any triangle shaped objects, analyze the angles on a five-pointed star, and count how many triangles and angles are...

Students identify attributes in real-life objects and models of solids and connect these attributes to characteristics of shapes such as circles, triangles, squares, and other rectangles. They discuss the ability of the object to roll,...
