More Prisms/Nets
Pupils calculate the volume and surface are of three-dimensional shapes. In this geometry lesson, students use the nets to prove their calculations of shapes. They identify the different parts of a solid using the nets.

Surface Area and Volume
Learners are introduced to the notion of surface area and volume. Students review surface area and volume by finding the area of a two-dimensional shape. They practice using the computer to create different surface area shapes.

Chopping Cubes
Middle schoolers work in small groups to make various geometric solids with Play-Doh. They use fishing line to make cuts and observe the shapes of the cross-sections. Pupils complete an assessment in which they answer questions such as:...

“Rhythm in Layers”
Young artists learn to build rhythm into a design by repeating colors, shapes, and patterns in a 3-D sculpture activity.

An Introduction to Measuring Theory
Students investigate one, two and three dimensional objects. In this algebra lesson, students differentiate between different shapes of objects and write equations to represent each. They start with what they already know and prove...
Curated OER
Spaces and Places
Young scholars identify three-dimensional forms in various buildings and construct three-dimensional paper forms.
Curated OER
Exploring the Properties of Rectangular Prisms.
Students define properties of rectangular prisms. In this geometry lesson, students identify the relationship between two and three dimensional objects. They use Cabri technology to graph their figures.

Comparative Sculpture Lesson Plan
Fifth graders view original artwork, define the art form sculpture, discuss similarities and differences between the examples provided, discuss the three-dimensional quality of each example given, and create and critique their own artwork.

Gumdrop Crystal Models
A great way to learn about molecular structures is to make a model. Gumdrops and toothpicks are used to construct crystal models. The models are based on theories of crystal shapes that occur because of positive and or negatively charged...

Model Cell Project
If you're finishing up a unit on cells, here's a great project to get kids collaborating and recalling what they've learned in a fun and tangible way. Small groups create plant or animal cells out of materials they have at home. They use...

Teaching About Plate Tectonics and Faulting Using Foam Models
Young scientists learn about plate tectonics and the three different types of faults (normal, reverse, and strike-slip) using foam models. The activity also covers common types of locations where these faults are found.
Curated OER
Platonic Solids
Students identify different types of polygons. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between convex and regular shapes. they identify the names of two and three-dimensional objects.
Curated OER
Tissue Collage Vase
Fifth graders create a collage vase with tissue paper. Using the vase, they cover the material with tissue overlapping with other pieces. They use Mod Podge to get the wrinkled look of the tissue paper and make three dimensional...
Curated OER
Dinosaur Designs
Students study dinosaurs in science and conduct online research to gather written information about his or her dinosaur. Then, in art class, they sketch their dinosaur and create an accurate three-dimensional dinosaur model out of paper...
Curated OER
Compass Designs
Students investigate the properties of two and three dimensional objects. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate polygons based on similarity and congruence. They make observation and interpret the data.
Curated OER
Sketch Up
Students estimate and measure exact. In this geometry lesson, students create different object in three-dimensional pattern. They use SketchUp to create their shape and perform measurements on their shapes.
Curated OER
Area of Tangram Pieces
Mathematicians calculate the area of a tangram piece without using formulas. They use a geometry journal to record activities during this instructional activity. They make a set of tangrams and use them to...
Noyce Foundation
Pizza Crusts
Enough stuffed crust to go around. Pupils calculate the area and perimeter of a variety of pizza shapes, including rectangular and circular. Individuals design rectangular pizzas with a given area to maximize the amount of crust and do...

A Classroom Demonstration of Protein Folding
Does the mention of proteins and polypeptide relationships in your classroom result in mass confusion? Does the attempt to teach this important concept generate multiple questions and, at times, lead to a room filled with blank...
Balanced Assessment
Plenty of Pentagons
Why are only four colors needed to color webs from regular pentagons, not five? An assessment task requires young mathematicians to first construct regular pentagons using a compass and straightedge, then has them consider a shape...
Curated OER
Transformations and Translations in Geometry
In this transformations and translations in Geometry worksheet, learners use geometric shapes and grids to translate six transformations in each of two activities.
Curated OER
More of Carrie's Cubes
Students solve a word problem that explores the shape of a cube and ways that part of it can be colored. They discuss the problem and analyze a Rubik's cube, explore the problem using a graph, and discuss the solutions as a class.
Curated OER
Theme Sculptures: Offering Reconciliation
Students create 3-dimensional works in clay. In this sculpture activity, students discuss a theme and create a sculpture based on that theme. Students express personal ideas and feelings through the arts.
