Students classify angles. In this angles lesson plan, students explore the characteristics of angles, triangles, quadrilaterals and circles. They identify polygons and sing a classifying angles song. Students participate in a...

Students identify and name basic shapes and points. In this elementary geometry lesson, students use printable cut outs to name circles, triangles, and squares before playing a game with them. They play a game of "Pin the Tail on the...

Explore geometry with your young mathematicians! First, have them color in different two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes. Then take them on a walk around the classroom. Can they identify different shapes using the target...

Students explore geometry by utilizing stackable blocks in class. In this shape identification lesson, students discuss the different characteristics of squares, rectangles and circles while creating them with building blocks in class....

Students practice using measuring techniques by examining bubbles.  In this geometry lesson, students utilize mathematic formulas to discover the circumference and diameter of soap bubbles they blow.  Students practice creating...

Learners create an atomic model using a computer program. In this technology lesson plan, students identify the difference between radius and diameter. They create circular patterns and spheres based on certain specifications.

Students identify lines in everyday images.  In this art analysis instructional activity, students practice drawing diagonal, vertical and horizontal lines on pieces of chart paper.  Students examine a page from a magazine and...

Third graders identify two and three dimensional shapes used in architectural designs by viewing images on the Internet.  In this geometry lesson, 3rd graders create their own building designs and identify the geometric shapes that...

Fourth and fifth graders investigate angles and name them according to the criteria for obtuse, acute, and right angles. They examine a human-made yarn pattern on the floor of their classroom and identify angles, vertices, and types of...

Tenth graders explore mathematics by participating in hands-on daily activities. Learners identify a list of different shapes and classify them by shape, size, sides and vertices. They utilize tangrams and geometric pieces to gain...

Students simulate the Earth's revolution around the sun using CEENBoT. In this earth science lesson students calculate the Earth's distance in AU and it's speed of revolution. They explain how the Earth's movement cause seasonal variation.
