In this 2-D shapes lesson plan, kindergarteners review plane shapes attributes. They engage in a shape hunt in the classroom and create art using plane shapes. A good, hands-on lesson plan!

Compare and classify 2-D shapes! Kindergarteners inspect the attributes of plane shapes and examine shapes in everyday life. They label the circles, squares, rectangles, and triangles they find. This is the website where you can find the...

Young mathematicians classify squares according to attributes. They sort squares according to specific attributes. Students explore squares in repeating patterns and order squares according to size. Engaging extension activities are...

Second graders explore and analyze plane shapes. In this plane shapes lesson, 2nd graders evaluate shape attributes to classify shapes correctly. Students work in groups to create different shapes.

Students explore regular geometric shapes. In this shapes lesson, students investigate geometric shapes in the world around them. Students differentiate between regular and irregular shapes.

Students examine two- and three-dimensional shapes and figures. Individually, they practice identifying the shape from various viewpoints. By completing this activity, they develop a spatial sense about how figures and shapes are...

This hands-on lesson takes young geometers on a tour of 2D polygons and 3D polyhedrons. After exploring different web resources and discussing geometric shapes, small groups construct models of polyhedrons using bendable straws. Note:...

Learners investigate the concept of two dimensional polygons. They complete a vocabulary chart with the teacher or in independently. Students are shown various polygons in order to classify them and then asked to draw one of them from...

Fourth graders investigate regular polygons. For this regular polygon lesson, 4th graders explore the attributes of different polygons. Students work in groups to complete a KWL chart regarding polygons.

Students utilize the Poison Boxes activity on The Nature Park is used to practice the recognition of 2D shapes and their properties. They utilize a mathematics educational software program to gain practice.

Students scan the classroom to find different common shapes. They listen as the teacher defines polygon and regular polygon. The teacher demonstrates regular polygons via the Internet and the "Math is Fun" web site. Students go outside...

Students identify shapes that match specific shape descriptions involving a range of geometric terms and correct polygon names. They utilize a mathematics educational software program to gain practice.

Learners investigate how to draw and classify two and three dimensional figures (squares, triangles, rectangles.)

Students study geometric images and polyhedrons. In this geometry lesson plan, students complete several activities to learn about geometric shapes and classify polyhedrons from polygons. Students watch a video, complete a web-directed...

Is it a calendar? A religious symbol? A political statement? One thing for certain is that Aztec sun stone designs remain an important symbol in Mexican cultural art. Young artists craft their own Aztec Sun design incorporating ideas...

Third graders use a number of problem solving strategies in this unit of lessons. They determine how to draw and model three-dimensional objects, use co-ordinate systems, determine probability of events, and identify paths of simple...

This two-part geometry lesson plan has students identify, describe, and classify two-dimensional shapes. Students engage in hands-on activities including identifying shapes in the classroom, creating patterns with shapes, identifying...
