Geometry.... sweet! Using sugar cubes, learners build rectangular prisms of different sizes and shapes. They glue them together and assess volume. Then they color the outer sides to visualize and compute surface area. To make a visceral...

Students describe, represent and analyze patterns and relationships using shapes. They create simple geometric patterns. They demonstrate increasing technical ability and skill to complete visual arts assignments.

Acquaint your class with line, color, shape, and texture through a study of artwork and an art activity. The resource includes images and information to share with your class before sending individuals off to sketch and paint...

Kids in grade four through eight research Inuit artists and art styles. After a critical look at Inuit sculpture, they use those forms for inspiration as they create one of their own. They practice using the subtractive method of...

Tenth graders analyze a biographical piece of art by Raymond Saunders. They identify shapes, symbols, and lines that are used, and how the piece relates to the artist's life and modern society. They design and create an original piece of...

In this geometry worksheet, students learn about 3-D objects and how to describe them. They then answer 10 questions using the information they learned. The answers are on the last page.

In this geometry worksheet #13 worksheet, 10th graders work in groups to solve 6 geometry problems, involving measurement of angles.

In this solid figures worksheet, students use the figures for the cube, pyramid, and rectangular prism to answer the six questions about the characteristics of solid figures.

Students examine lines of symmetry with different shapes. Then students create their own books of symmetry with different two-dimensional shapes on each page.

Sixth graders use number cubes to explore volume of two-dimensional shapes. They roll a die and construct a shape using the numbers rolled as measurements of the sides. They estimate the volume of a given object, and then use the...

Seventh graders investigate the concepts related to the geometry of treehouses that focuses on angles that are similar and congruent. They conduct class discussion in terms of looking at three dimensional shapes that are represented in...

In this 2 and 3 dimensional figures learning exercise, students determine whether given shapes are regular or irregular. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

Students identify two and three dimensional shapes and use appropriate geometric vocabulary to write a description of the figure by taking pictures of geometric figures in their own environment.

Third graders use pattern blocks of one shape at a time to try to create a similar shape. They compare the perimeter of the new figure with the perimeter of the original shape and look for a pattern. Students use the pattern to predict...

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...

In this perimeter and area worksheet, 9th graders solve 17 various types of problems, mostly word problems related to determining the area or perimeter of a geometric shape. They also determine the area and perimeter of shaded portions...

Students are introduced to the concept of symmetry by examining different shapes and folding them into equal halves. They work in small groups focusing on finding the lines of symmetry of one specific shape. A symmetry booklet is made by...

Young scholars complete a two-week unit involving design and construction concepts. They watch a PowerPoint presentation about geometric shapes, draw the fourteen shapes incorporated in bridge construction, and in small groups design,...

Guernsey, Jersey, Holstein. Brangus, Charoloais, Herford. Here’s a truly cross-curricular resource that combines language arts, science, math, and visual arts activities as class members learn to distinguish between beef and dairy...

Students discuss and study the word symmetry. They examine letters of the alphabet, shapes, and artwork and decide if they are symmetrical or not. Then they create their own symmetry monsters.

Second graders manipulate triangles to discover the concepts of slides, flips and turns of a geometric shape.

Third graders consider space and the techniques artists use to create three-dimensionality within a painting or drawing. They examine works by Millet, Bruegel and Demuth and then create original drawings that explore the effects of...

Fourth graders examine mirror symmetry. For this symmetry lesson, 4th graders discover that symmetry is not always vertical or horizontal. Students cut and fold shapes along lines of symmetry.

Students create a new playground design to present to elementary students during Playground safety week. They review basic geometry to use in observing and recording the equipment on a local playground. They research playground safety...
