Students work together to create mobiles with different polygons. They research the polygon and list its characteristics. They may present to the class if they chose to.

Students explore the concept of polygon properties. In this polygon properties lesson, students draw polygons with different numbers of sides such as pentagons, octagons, hexagons, etc. Students identify different geometric shapes in the...

Second graders gain an understanding of geometric shapes and spatial reasoning. They learn the attributes of solid shapes in everyday activities. Students compare geometric shapes to everday objects, finding things that serve a purpose...

Students complete activities to learn a phenomenological approach to polygons. In this polygons lesson, students use the materials in the directions to make demonstration models. Students use a wooden wagon model and liquid to learn...

Learners examine the correlation between art and math. Using their computers, students construct and measure angles. Learners identify the properties of angles and polygons. They engage in the Angles program on their Palm and use the...

Students create a scale model to a castle using the dimensions they were given. They calculate the surface areas and volumes of each section of their castle.

Students explore the concept of big and small. They collect objects from the classroom, sort them by size, and create a graph using Duplo stacking blocks.

Eighth graders practice using basic measurements to solve word problems.They also investigate finding the perimeter of different polygons and define the characteristics to classify the shape as a polygon.

Students investigate the geometric shape of a box. They apply different construction methods and materials to create a three dimensional box. The uses of a box are covered and the measurements taken to consider its uses. Students...

Students create Post-It note fundamental regions to tesselate. They make tesselations using computer software or websites. They create a jacket design with tesselation and determine the cost of production.

For this planes worksheet, students solve 5 multiple choice problems. Students determine which planes intersecting create a given line. Students determine which point is coplanar with three other ones.

Students expand their knowledge of quadrilaterals and identify basic symmetrical forms. Over three weeks, they explore the math, application, and discussion of symmetry. After conducting Internet research, students create symmetrical...

In this learning tool activity, 3rd graders cut and paste a template to create a cylinder. Students could color or decorate the cylinder.

Students identify and create simple geometric shapes and describe simple spatial relationships. Through discussion, hands-on activities and show and tell, they identify geometric solids in real life and create graphs of commonly found...

Fourth graders examine the properties of geometric solids. Given geometric figures, they brainstorm observations. In groups, 4th graders identify solids and discuss the physical properties. Each student creates a Venn diagram and...

Students compute the surface area of 3 geometric solids to determine the shape of package that would require the least amount of paper to wrap. In this geometry lesson, students work on a two-question assessment embedded in the plan. The...

For this mathematics worksheet, 1st graders find the pairs of polygons that are congruent on the sheet. Then they color them the same color and use their ruler to check their selections.

Students explore South Carolina. In this cultural heritage lesson plan, students investigate the topography of South Carolina using maps. Students are engaged in identifying the different regions of the state and examine the cultural...

Second graders conduct a survey, they record their data with the help of maps. They use an aerial photo or Ordnance Survey map, 2nd graders pinpoint specific places and add them to a legend using the drawing tools. Students use...

Sixth graders create decorative Egyptian collars, adorned with sequins, glitter, and beads, which incorporate repetitive designs.

Students make three dimensional shapes with nets. In this nets activity, students receive nets which they fold to make a three dimensional object. They predict what shape each net will make and verify it after making the net. They use...

Students discuss strategies for estimating information about various shapes. Once they draw and label four shapes with perimeters of 30 units, they calculate the areas of the figures. To complete the lesson, students offer written...

Eighth graders examine how to create a 3-D effect on a flat surface and draw in two-point perspective. They view and discuss elements of design, analyze artwork by M.C. Escher and Roy Lichtenstein, and design and create an art folder.

Students examine the art elements of the Inca "Large Jug." In this visual art instructional activity, students identify the colors, pattern, and shape of the Inca "Large Jug." Students then draw a design on a flat and curved surface and...
