In this math worksheet, students investigate simple geometric shapes in the world around them. Students examine 3 detailed pictures which contain many shapes, then answer 7 questions about the picture. Then students complete a rebus...

Classifying and sorting are great skills all kids need to know. They cut out each of the six images provided, then label each of two boxes. They glue the images in the appropriate box. Answers are provided. 

For this classifying shapes worksheet, students study the first shape in 5 rows of shapes. Students then color in the shape on each row that matches the initial shape.

Elementary schoolers explore 3-D shapes. They transition from thinking of shapes as only 2-D. Pupils read Cinderella as a launching activity for their upcoming adventure, and explore a new world of 3-D shapes in this introductory lesson.

Fourth graders recognize and classify geometric figures. In this geometry lesson, 4th graders read the books Shape Up and The Greedy Triangle and prepare a short report on the shapes mentioned in the text. Students compare the...

Kindergartners are introduced to basic shapes. Learners spend 45 minutes a day in geometry centers carrying out the activities outlined in this ambitious plan. There are games, hands-on activities, interactive websites, art projects,...

In this shapes activity, 2nd graders color the shape in each row that is different from the rest. Students color shapes for 5 rows with different shapes in them.

Bring math and reading informational text together with a reading comprehension lesson. After kids read about isosceles, scalene, and equilateral triangles, they answer five comprehension questions to demonstrate how they can use context...

Students sort objects by shape, size and color. For this math and literacy sorting lesson, students listen to the book Freddy the Fish and the Squash that Goes Squish by Duke Christoffersen. Students work in small groups to sort...

Students explore geometry by utilizing computer software. In this shape identification lesson plan, students define several geometric shapes by the characteristics that classify them. Students draw and cut out geometric shapes using...

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...

Learners identify various angles and how to measure each type. They use a protractor to measure each of the angles. Students also write the name of the angle and identify the number of degrees for each.

Learners examine a figure made up of different types of triangles and then determine whether each triangle is right, acute, or obtuse. Next, they color each type of triangle a different color. Finally, pupils answer three fill in the...

Students explore measurements by analyzing geometric shapes. In this surface area lesson, students identify the terms volume, weight, perimeter and area in order to find the requested measurements of specific polygons. Students utilize...

Students investigate measurement through the use of literature through this series of lessons.

Pupils investigate triangles. In this shapes geometry lesson, students define and state the attributes for equilateral, scalene, and isosceles triangles. Pupils locate the prefix "tri" in a variety of words and make connections with the...

Learners explore geometry by drawing various shapes in class. In this triangle characteristics lesson, students identify the attributes that classify a shape as a triangle and practice using their bodies to create triangles in class....

Students learn about sorting and classifying objects by size while reading Eric Carle's "The Grouchy Ladybug". In this sorting and classifying lesson, students first listen to and interact with the story. They then look at cut-outs of...

Students investigate geometric shapes in their environment, make a geometric design, and write paragraphs describing the design.

Students create a quilt square for a class quilt using at least three, two-dimensional geometric figures. They research and write a brief description of at least two different quilt patterns that they find. Pupils discuss that quilts are...

Eighth graders classify geometric figures.  In this polygon lesson, 8th graders identify given geometric figures.  They compare and contrast different polygons.  Students name line segments, identify parallel lines, and...

Students explore geometry by completing a math worksheet in class. In this shape identification lesson, students identify the characteristics associated with 15 solid geometric shapes. Students identify patterns between vertices, edges...

In this flow chart worksheet, students learn to use flow charts for classification of numbers, geometric shapes and animals. Students follow the directions and fill out flow charts to work out 20 answers. This is an online activity that...

Students explore a calendar. In this calendar and math instructional activity, students view a video clip about using a calendar. Students participate in a game in which a game board is used to identify days of the week, dates, and months.
