In this patterns worksheet, 4th graders look at 2 solids, a cone and a cube, and then circle the multiple choice letter of the net for each solid.

For this identifying faces of solid figures worksheet, students solve each of the 6 problems that require them to identify the faces of a cylinder, box, cone, and pyramid.

Elementary learners explore coin mint dates. First, they listen to the book Alexander Who Used to be Rich Last Sunday by Judith Viorst. They then sort a collection of coins according to their mint date and put them in order from oldest...

Discover different dimensions with paper folding. Pupils first read about zero, one, two, and three dimensions, and then learn about the fourth dimension, time. They then use origami to create models of shapes in three dimensions and use...

Students explore pioneer farm life and the types of cooking and ingredients available. They recreate a pioneer version of a sno-cone and discuss why crushed ice was used more often than snow in this recipe.

Learners discover how crystal structures go together to create minerals.  In this earth science lesson, students work in groups to create 3-dimensional shapes of crystals that they then put together in a compact structure.

For this solid figures worksheet, 5th graders are given six objects in which they are asked to chose which solid figure each object looks like. Students are provided a visual of each solid figure.

In this solid shapes worksheet, students count and name shapes, write the names of missing shapes, write about the difference between a rectangular prism and cube and build designs.

Three-dimensional shapes can be categorized based on their attributes, and scholars learn more about six figures through this sorting activity. They examine six shapes: sphere, cylinder, cone, cube, prism, and pyramid....

Young scientists must place a check mark next to the answer they think is correct regarding things that are warm, cool, hard, and soft. This would be a good way to begin discussing how some things actually change states of matter...

Young scholars read The Greedy Triangle and discuss geometric solids. In this geometry lesson plan, students list the geo-solids in the world and create a graphic organizer to show where geo-solids exist.

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:...

Students explore three topics of elements of art in this seven lessons unit. An overview of light, space, figure, ground, pattern, balance and symmetry are presented in this unit.

Learners calculate the surface area of different polygons. In this geometry lesson, students practice calculating the volume of spheres. They work with cones, cylinders and rectangular prisms.

In this algebra worksheet, students apply the properties of exponents as they solve problems with exponents. They compare ratios and volumes as they relate to each other. There are 5 questions with an answer key.

In this math worksheet, students cut out six three-dimensional shapes. The shapes include a sphere, cone, cylinder, pyramid, and cube.

Third graders identify two and three dimensional shapes used in architectural designs by viewing images on the Internet.  In this geometry lesson, 3rd graders create their own building designs and identify the geometric shapes that...

Aspiring astronauts construct a space vehicle using cylinders, cones, spheres, and rectangular prisms. This is an engaging method of learning about three-dimensional shapes. Note that the word cylinder is constantly misspelled in the...

Seventh graders investigate the mathematical concept of a sector. They apply the concept to an example problem and then move into a more complex application. They find the area of the side of a cone. This is done as students calculate...

Pupils study geometric shapes, lines, and the primary colors as they create Mondrian-like art prints.

Here is a math lesson that is really a visual arts lesson in disguise! In it, pupils utilize their knowledge of geometric shapes and forms to create a detailed version of a cylinder. The instructions on how to go about the task are very...

Compare two- and three-dimensional shapes and construct three dimensional models from two-dimensional shapes. Diagram the shapes and reflect about the process in writing.

Play a coordinates game to encourage collaborative learning and grid use! Learners plot points on grids and play a game that challenges them to locate a specific point on a coordinate grid by using horizontal and vertical movements.

Young visual learners explore different cross sections of 3-dimensional objects. First, cross sections of cubes are explored by using an interactive flash activity. This is then extended by looking at cross sections of spheres,...
