Sixth graders investigate the area of polygons. In this geometry lesson, 6th graders calculate area of prisms using geometric formulas. They work with prisms and other rectangular shapes.

Students classify prisms according to their attributes. In this classifying prisms lesson, students explore different prisms. Students generate observations of the attributes and classify the prism correctly.

Students study pyramids. In this prisms lesson plan, students explore the attributes of pyramids. Students will explore the lateral surface area of pyramids and be able to distinguish pyramids from other space shapes.

Students participate in activities the connect measurement to geometry, statistics, estimation, and the real world. They collect measurements from their elbow to the tip of their middle finger and make a box plot of the data as well as...

Students use their county's information page to gather information about their community. Using the information, they create graphs from the tables provided and interpret the data. They write a paragraph showing their interpretation of...

Pupils, in groups, use song lyrics and math to descrie two and three dimensional shapes.

Second graders read poetry and build their vocabulary through use of the puppet Geo George.

Eighth graders study the cultural and architectural history of San Diego. After study they create a design of a home based of features from historical and modern homes found in their research.

Fifth graders describe patterns as relations and functions. In this patterning lesson plan, 5th graders analyze and continue patterns. Students understand how patterns relate to relations and functions.

This tool allows you to manipulate various geometric solids and investigate their properties.

The instructional tool explores various geometric solids and their properties. Student can manipulate and color the different shapes. Learners examine the edges, faces, and vertices of the different solid figures.

A ten-question test for assessing geometry concepts with solid figures. This assessment is scored online providing students with immediate feedback. Great for use as an assessment tool.

Print out these colorfully illustrated PDF file pages to practice learning your basic three dimensional geometric solids. Fold them in half and one side shows the shape while the other side shows the shape with the correct name. Put them...

Practice identifying 3D shapes.

A comprehensive list of 2D shapes and 3D solids with everything from a triangle to a dodecahedron. Includes illustrations and short descriptions of attributes for each.

Investigate the concepts of area, volume, 3D shapes, and nets using this interactive Learn Alberta math. The solid shapes focused on this exploration include rectangular and triangular prisms, rectangular and triangular pyramids,...

This page brings you to a table of contents of three-dimensional figures. Selecting a figure will bring you to a page defining and illustrating the figure with applicable formulas listed.

This tutorial features templates and instructions to make the following solids: tetrahedron, cube, octahedron, dodecahedron, and icosahedron.

[Free Registration/Login Required] This is a formative assessment task where students are asked to use geometric solids to model each of four tent shapes on a worksheet and use mathematical language to describe them. Samples of student...

Resource examines the area of geometric solids through examples and a video lesson. [0:39]

In this enrichment game, the nets for nine solids are displayed. The twist is that each net has been cut into two pieces. The challenge is find the pieces that go together.

Print or create worksheets or flashcards to assess students' understanding of geometrical figures and describe the relationships between them.

[Free Registration/Login Required] In this flip chart, students apply geometric sense by using the properties of two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes to solve mathematical problems involving area and volume.
