In this online fractional parts worksheet, third graders read descriptions of fractions and choose the corresponding pictures, color fractional parts, identify shaded parts, draw lines to show fractions, and draw lines of symmetry....

Students investigate the concept of line symmetry and how to recognize it in different contexts. They record the number of symmetries when given problems to work on in class. They review the concept of congruence and how it relates to...

Second graders, in groups, rotate through four workstations that reinforce the concept of symmetry. They spend about fifteen minutes at each workstation.

Students examine the concepts of geometry used by Paul Goble in his book Adopted By The Eagles. After analyzing Mr. Goble's work they create an original piece featuring symmetry, pattern, repetition, and other principles of geometry....

Sixth graders explore symmetry and discuss the difference between a rotation and reflection. Using hands-on activities, such as folding paper shapes, they discover how to find the lines of symmetry and symmetrical characteristics. As a...

Stdents create symmetrical designs by cutting folded paper in this cross-curricular lesson for the Math and Art classsroom. The lesson is adaptable for any grade or ability level.

Students explore the concept of symmetry by drawing an the other half of an object. They pick from a stack of magazine pictures and draw it on another piece of paper.

Students investigate the concept of symmetry by using various examples and performing independent practice with scaffolding provided by the teacher. They review reflection symmetry and cover the new rotation symmetry using manipuatives.

Challenge the class to utilize their knowledge of linear and quadratic functions to determine the intersection of the parent quadratic graph and linear proportional graphs. Using the pattern for the solutions, individuals develop a...
