Curated OER
Writing Takes Shape!
Students read The Greedy Triangle and discuss geometric solids. In this geometry instructional activity, students list the geo-solids in the world and create a graphic organizer to show where geo-solids exist.

Basic Shapes
Students create books about shapes. In this shape lesson plan, students select a topic such as points, lines, angles, planes, polygons, quadrilaterals, triangles, circles, and polyhedra. In groups, they create an illustrated...

Tri this Angle!
First graders draw and describe various types of polygons. they investigate their own environments for examples of polygons. After reading the book, The Greedy Triangle, they discuss everyday objects that are polygons. They create shape...

3-D Attributes
Students 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. Students define geometric solids...

A Snap at Geometry
Students study geometric images and polyhedrons. In this geometry lesson, students complete several activities to learn about geometric shapes and classify polyhedrons from polygons. Students watch a video, complete a web-directed...
Curated OER
That's So Square
Students familiarize themselves with the three most common geometric shapes: circles, triangles and parallelograms. They sketch, sort, and name the shapes.
