Fourth graders are asked to name different shapes.Four to five students to share their answers with the class. The teacher leads the discussion in geometry about the properties associated with shapes.

Third graders create 2D and 3D shapes using marshmallows and toothpicks. For this geometry lesson, 3rd graders create their shapes and document the number of faces, edges, corners, angles, and sides. They share one shape and its...

Students identify points on the coordinate plane using ordered pairs and also plot the ordered pairs on the coordinate plane. They also use properties of shapes to identify polygons such as triangles and quadrilaterals (square,...

In this polygons worksheet, students fill out a graphic organizer about the name of the polygon, the number of sides, the angle sums, and more. Students complete this for 5 polygons.

Seventh graders study geometric shapes around the classroom. In this geometry lesson plan, 7th graders discuss their answers in groups to the Anticipation/Reaction guide handout. Students complete the reaction side of the guide and...

Students visit various websites to calculate the area of circles, triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, and parallelograms. They explore math problems and play interactive games dealing with geometry.

Learners use pattern blocks and triangular grid paper to review shape names, be introduced to the concept of a tiling of the plane, and determine which pattern blocks tile the plane. They are asked: "Have you ever seen a floor or a wall...

Students solve problems with triangles. In this geometry lesson, students analyze shapes to find different triangles. They name the shapes created by putting triangles together.

Young scholars solve geometry problems. In this area and perimeter lesson, students use formulas to solve problems from the textbook. 

How similar do figures have to be to be similar figures? Individuals learn to identify similar figures by verifying that angles are congruent and sides are proportional. Additionally, they match the corresponding parts of similar figures.

Learners find the area and perimeter of regular polygons and composite figures and examine the effect on the area and perimeter of a figure if the dimensions are multiplied by a constant. The nine page worksheet contains thirty-seven...

Students compare and contrast angles and identify them as acute, obtuse, right, or straight angles. They create rays and angles using uncooked spaghetti, read and discuss key vocabulary terms, and complete a variety of geometry worksheets.

Fourth graders identify and classify different triangles and quadrilaterals. Then they demonstrate an understanding of plane and solid geometric objects and use this knowledge to show relationships and solve specific problems. Students...

Students explore geometry in Navajo culture. In this geometry lesson, students search for different geometrical shapes in Navajo art. Students then create their own rug or jewelry design using geometrical shapes.

Students analyze characteristics of various 2 dimensional shapes and explore their properties and use various vocabulary terms to discuss geometric relationships.

Students identify basic geometric shapes. In this geometry lesson, students read the book Shapetown and identify the various shapes from the story. Students are given a sheet and draw part of a town using only shapes.

Students perform transformation on their polygons. In this geometry lesson, students identify the correct transformation of each shape. They move the polygons around on a coordinate plane. There are extension and homework activities...

Students calculate the area of different polygons. In this geometry lesson, students find the area of complex polygons. They solve word problems using rates and distances.

Students discover which regular polygons can be used to tile a plane.

Students study relationships between angles, side lengths, perimeters, areas and volumes of similar objects. In this lesson students also create and critique inductive and deductive arguments concerning congruency, similarity and the...

In this geometry coloring maze worksheet, 3rd graders color a path of rectangles to help a dog ( pictured) to find his way to the dog house. They choose the rectangles out of other geometric shapes such as stars, oval, triangles,...

Learners construct a variety of right triangles using a right-angled set square, cutting corners from pieces of paper or cardboard, and using dynamic geometry software. They measure the sides of these various right triangles and record...

Scholars use interactive resources to figure out how to mathematically draw a reflection of a geometric shape viewed in a mirror. To conclude the activity, class members are asked to deduce the result of multiple reflections across...

Shape shifters recognize characteristics of polygons. Embracing language arts skills in addition to math, they use a thesaurus to pinpoint specific attributes of a set of polygons. They also participate in a 21-question guessing game...
