Students explore colors and shapes. In this art concepts lesson plan, students discuss shapes, lines, and color while creating a variety of abstract designs. The instructions for several art activities are provided. Basic art vocabulary...

Students explore the basic geometric shapes and geometric shape vocabulary through the use of geoboards and virtual geoboards. They create a variety of shapes with a partner, build ten different rectangles on their geoboards, and...

Second graders identify the attributes of various shapes and estimate the weight of the objects. In this geometry lesson, 2nd graders identify the attributes of concrete objects and use a pan balance to weight them.

First graders use geometric shapes to create and extend patterns. Students read a book and view African garments. They identify patterns in the garments. Students create and decorate a paper vest with geometric patterns.

Students play various games to help create a classroom community. In this name recognition lesson, students combine their name recognition skills with newly learned art and geometric vocabulary. First students discover vocabulary that...

Students compare, sort, and describe shapes. Using a button collection, students identify the shape, color number of holes, etc. Students play a description game with the buttons. They create a chart and name items that are the same...

Students construct two dimensional models to illustrate squared numbers. In this geometry instructional activity, students use graph paper and an x/y axis to build squares exponentially. Students identify powers and relationships between...

In this geometry learning exercise, students study diagrams with labels of common geometric figures. Students then answer 24 questions. Then they draw and label their own figures.

Investigate geometric reflections in this geometry lesson. Create geometric reflections that show the reflection across the x and y axis of a coordinate graph. Learners watch a teacher demonstration before proceeding on their own. They...

In this recognizing characteristics of shapes activity, students identify characteristics of quadrilaterals, triangles, and parallelograms and determine which sets fall under the same category. Students solve four problems.

Elementary school learners investigate the attributes of a square. They discover that squares are polygons and examine squares found in everyday life. They concentrate on connecting the word, square, with the shape. As an...

Students investigate circles and spheres. In this space shapes lesson, students compare and contrast two-dimensional and three-dimensional shapes. Students investigate the relationship between plane and space shapes.

Upper graders access the Microsoft Word program and create patterns by utilizing certain keys on the keyboard. They create picket fences, smiley faces, and hearts. It seems that this lesson has as much to do with keyboarding skills as it...

Learners study parallel and perpendicular lines. In this parallel and perpendicular lesson, pupils explore 2-D shapes and determine if the sides are parallel or perpendicular.

Fifth graders draw 2-D and 3-D shapes. They sketch and label geometric figures with correct terminology, then explore parallel and perpendicular lines. Pupils sort and classify shapes drawn.

In this geometry worksheet, students analyze 9 drawings of geometric shapes and solid figures. Students write the name of each shape. There is no word bank.

In this congruent figures worksheet, students analyze a geometric shape and choose from the answer box any figures that are congruent to that shape. There are 3 problems.

Students use their classroom to look for various types of shapes. In their science journals, they record the shapes they find and identify those that can be used to solve problems or build structures. They share and post their sketches...

Students are introduced to the basics of Geometry. Using cutout shapes, they identify whether they are polygons by using the properties of polygons. They practice drawing shapes they are going to be using on an everyday basis and...

Students graph polygons using the name and number of sides. In this geometry lesson, students identify the formula to calculate the area and perimeter of polygons. They relate the formula to different polygons and shapes.

In this basic geometry worksheet, young scholars use basic formulas of geometry to find the area of a polygons, the number of sides of a polygon, and sum of the angles of various polygons. This three-page worksheet contains eight problems.

Tenth graders construct a variety of geometric shapes and designs using a Mira, Clinometer and Geometry Flash Cards. They complete a worksheet.

In this shapes activity, students play a board game where they name the shape that they land on. Students have 20 spaces in the board game.

Students practice geometry skills. For this geometry lesson, students find the surface area of cubes and prisms, identify shapes on solids, and distinguish between 2-dimensional objects and solids.
