Chairs Around the Table
Youngsters become flexible problem solvers with this challenging lesson. If there are 24 square tables in a restaurant, how many customers can be seated at one time? They can use manipulatives or draw pictures to help them find the...
Curated OER
Geoboard Area
Students explore the basic geometric shapes and geometric shape vocabulary through the use of geoboards and virtual geoboards. They create a variety of shapes with a partner, build ten different rectangles on their geoboards, and...
Curated OER
Math Quilts
Students examine geometric quilt patterns to identify how math may have been used to help slaves escape to freedom. They slide, flip and turn geometric shapes to create a map quilt.

A Different Point of View
Elementary schoolers utilize a pattern worksheet embedded in this plan to work on a deeper understanding of geometric concepts like symmetry and congruency. Since geometry is such a visual form of mathematics, this lesson should fit...
Curated OER
Soft Sculpture Birds
Art can mimic life, and animals are always interesting subjects. Learners create large soft sculptures (stuffed) birds using paper, paint, and other basic collage materials. They view images of birds, and discuss bird traits and shapes....

Problem Solving Using Pattern Blocks
Students use pattern blocks to create a figure that is described to them and establish a pattern based on the description of the geometric figure. In this pattern blocks lesson plan, students fill out shape and fraction worksheets.
Curated OER
Complete the Patterns
In this patterns worksheet, learners analyze the geometric shapes in each of 5 rows. Students determine the pattern and then draw the next three shapes that would continue the sequence.
Curated OER
Complete the Patterns
In this patterns instructional activity, learners analyze a row of geometric shapes in a pattern. Students draw the next three shapes that would come in the sequence. There are 5 problems.
Curated OER
Symmetrical Geometry Paintings
Here is a clever, cross-curricular lesson that combines art and geometry. Learners design a painting that uses geometrical shapes and is symmetrical. Sponge-shaped geometrical figures are used to design half a page and fold them to...
Curated OER
Patterns That Grow
Young scholars investigate growing patterns. In this additive patterns lesson, students analyze the core of growing patterns. Young scholars extend additive patterns based on the core.
Curated OER
Leaves, Flowers, Seashells, Mirrors and Symmetry
Young scholars develop an understanding of patterns and symmetry. In this symmetry and pattern lesson, students use real world patterns then analyze and extend them. Young scholars also use real world items while discovering and...

Pop! Rockets
Off they go — launching rockets is fun. The lesson plan contains templates to build paper rockets that can be launched from a PVC pipe launcher. Individuals or groups build the rockets and determine the shapes for their fins. Included...
Curated OER
Our Geometric World
Third graders explore the attributes of polygons. In this geometric shapes lesson, 3rd graders review quadrilaterals, squares, rectangles, triangles, pentagons, hexagons, and octagons in order to create hanging polygons. Students then...
Curated OER
Shapes and Patterns- Kaleidoscope
Third graders create art using shapes. In this shapes and patterns lesson plan, 3rd graders explore multiple ways of combining shapes to create new objects and art.
Curated OER
Lighthouse Geometric
Students identify the types and characteristics of geometric figures. In this lighthouse geometric lesson plan, students review shapes that represent plane or solid. They select items that could be used to construct a lighthouse...
Curated OER
Pattern Blocks to Understand Fractions
Students use pattern blocks to help them complete fraction problems. In this fraction lesson plan, students complete problems on worksheets provided.
Curated OER
Easy and Artistic Printmaking Using Mixed Media Materials
Learners explore printmaking which began with the ancient Chinese who carved seals from stone, inked them and used the seals as identification symbols. They produce a print in this instructional activity.
Curated OER
Relations
Learners identify, compare, and analyze shapes and numbers. In this analogies and comparison math lesson, students warm up by completing 4 worksheets to familiarize themselves with analogies. In small groups, learners are challenged to...
Curated OER
Patterns
In this patterns worksheet, students examine five strips of geometric shapes and then decide which of two shapes at the end is the next one to follow each pattern.
Curated OER
