Symmetry, Similar & Congruent Shapes
Fifth graders identify lines of symmetry., similar and congruent shapes. They use construction paper to create their own symmetrical shapes. Students create stained glass frames containing symmetrical, congruent and similar shapes.
Curated OER
A World of Symmetry
Students identify lines of symmetry. In this symmetry lesson, students create objects and identify their lines of symmetry. They answer questions about lines of symmetry. Students cut shapes out of cookie dough and decorate it to...

Science and Math Lab (Students Look at Symmetry in Nature)
Students study patterns. In this symmetry in nature instructional activity, students examine objects to determine what type of symmetry they have. They work in small groups to rotate through stations that have objects for them to study.
Curated OER
Line Symmetry
Fourth graders identify line symmetry. In this geometry activity, 4th graders are given various pictures and identify if they are symmetrical. Students search through magazines for symmetrical pictures.
Curated OER
Identifying Lines of Symmetry
Learners calculate the lines of symmetry using polygons. In this geometry lesson, students graph, compare and estimate using collected data. They identify different attributes to the polygons based on their sides.
Curated OER
Symmetry in Butterflies
Learners create a butterfly displaying a mirror image of itself to show that it is symmetrical. In this symmetry lesson plan, students go over symmetry in different shapes and identify patterns in butterflies.
Curated OER
Interpreting Lao Design Drawing
Learners identify symmetry as a word and concept using drawings. The lesson is cross-cultural using traditional Lao Art. The goal is to then apply the skills of symmetry to personal works of art that are produced.
