Curated OER
Geometry Practice: Classifying Solids #2
For this solids worksheet, students identify the characteristics of solids. They name solids and determine the number of faces. This three-page worksheet contains seventeen problems. Answers are listed on the last page.
Curated OER
Classifying Three-Dimensional Shapes
Compare geometric solids based on their properties. Your emergent geometers use spaghetti and marshmallows to build models so they can examine the number of faces, edges, and vertices on polyhedra of their own creation. Resource includes...
Curated OER
Poly-Mania
This hands-on lesson plan 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....
Curated OER
Marshmallow Figures
Students enjoy making 3-D figures while learning about rectangular prisms, pyramids, vertices, edges, and faces. After a lecture/demo, students use marshmallows, toothpicks and a worksheet imbedded in this lesson to create 3 dimensional...
Curated OER
Strongest Polygon
Students define and identify shapes by name. In this geometry lesson plan, students construct, identify and compare polygons based on the number of sides. They classify each shape based on their angle sum theorem.
Curated OER
A Snap at Geometry
Young scholars study geometric images and polyhedrons. In this geometry instructional activity, students complete several activities to learn about geometric shapes and classify polyhedrons from polygons. Young scholars watch a video,...
Curated OER
Polydron Fun
Young scholars investigate nets as they relate to volume and area. In this geometry lesson, students use nets as a visual to deepen their understanding of surface area and volume of objects. They make conjectures about different objects...
Curated OER
Incredible Edible Bridges
Learners create a bridge using engineering and geometric concepts. In this geometry lesson, students identify the missing measures of polygons sides and angles. They work together to solve real life situation using problem solving skills.
Curated OER
Solids...Volume and Surface Area
In this volume and surface area worksheet, students find the volume and surface area of different solid figures. Students complete 8 problems.
