Here's a prescription for creativity—keep a daily art journal. Words, images, shapes, objects, all can be used as prompts that exercise the creative imagination. Set aside a couple of moments each day for this engaging activity.

To determine the dimensional change to quadruple the area, class members determine how to increase the dimensions of a square and a circle to increase the perimeter by a given factor. they then calculate the necessary factor to...

Students examine works of stained glass in one dimensional art form then adapt it a three dimensional transparent mobile. They create their mobile using patterns of shapes and simple images from computer line art, printed art books or...

Third graders are given square tiles and participate in a demonstration on how to arrange them. Using the tiles, they work with a partner to discover how many two-dimensional tetrominoes they can create. To end the lesson, they must...

Eighth graders engage in a lesson that is concerned with examining two dimensional figures with different properties that include circles, triangles, queadrilaterals, etc... They identify the types of figures that is identified as polygons.

Young scholars explore two dimensional geometric figures. They explore the relationships and measurements of geometric figures. Students apply proportion and scaling. They design a city park for young scholars and teenagers.

Students identify and discuss the basic shapes used in artistic still-life compositions.

Students examine and discuss the use of symmetry in a painting by the artist Roger Brown. They draw a geometric shape, divide it with a line of symmetry, and create a painting using the geometric shapes demonstrating symmetry.

Students design a collage of pictures for a yearbook that make a shape. They determine the area of the shape and the price of putting the collage in the yearbook.

Seventh graders measure surface area. For this geometry lesson, 7th graders find the surface area of various geometrical shapes. Using a computer program, students compute the area of 2-D and 3-D shapes.  Students use...

Students take a 2 dimensional drawing and make it into a 3 dimensional form. In this art lesson plan, students base their work off of Keith Haring, and view slides and a video of other 3D art.

Students watch a video and slides to view Keith Haring's work of 3 dimensional forms based on 2 dimensional imagery. In this 3 dimensional forms lesson plan, students analyze symbols and discuss lines, sound, movement, and emotions.

In this geometry worksheet, 10th graders respond to journal prompts related to prisms and classifying solid shapes.  The two page worksheet contains nine questions.  Answers are included. 

Pupils judge, compare and construct two-dimensional figures using a variety of materials.

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

Fifth graders create a reflection of a poygon using a Mira. They discover that a line connecting a vertiex of a polygon and the corresponding vertex of its reflection is perpendicular to the line of reflection. Students create a glide...

Students examine how feelings of caring and working together can be expressed in works of art, and define the terms two-dimensional and three-dimensional. They design and create celebratory hats using three-dimensional paper techniques.

Students examine works of art that convey the idea of working together and analyze how artists use foreground, middle ground, and background. They use two-and three-dimensional materials to create a work of art.

Young scholars evaluate visual arts by creating furniture designs. In this three dimensional art instructional activity, students utilize the web to examine different artist renderings of furniture, sculpture and architecture. Young...

In this hyperbola worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 6 different problems. First, they determine the cross-section of a hyperbolic paraboloid curve. Then, students find where the cone intersects the ground in hyperbola as...

In this spatial relations worksheet, learners solve three-dimensional problems. They find the total number of triangles in a given figure, the number of line segments that endpoints and use integer points to solve two problems. This...

In this second grade geometry worksheet, 2nd graders answer 10 multiple choice questions about geometric shapes, with the answers available online.

Fifth graders will be predicting and describing the results of sliding, flipping, and turning two-dimensional shapes. They will also understand patterns so they can describe, extend, and make generalizations about geometric and numeric...

Students explore the world of art and culture, including the works of M.C. Escher. They identify and create original tessellations. Students use a wealth of interactive multimedia applications. They explore the artistic representations...
