Can you find the line of symmetry? That's what your students will demonstrate by completing this worksheet. The task gets increasingly difficult as shapes are included that have one line of symmetry, no lines of symmetry, and multiple...

Fifth graders review the concept of a line of symmetry by using pieces of paper that have pictures such as, letters of the alphabet, polygons, and designs made from polygons in order to determine if they have symmetry. The fine,...

What can symmetry tell us about triangles? After looking at four examples, learners will come to realize that lines of symmetry are different for equilateral, isosceles, and scalene triangles. Use this guided practice activity as an...

Middle schoolers identify lines of symmetry.  In this symmetry lesson, students create objects and identify their lines of symmetry.  They answer questions about lines of symmetry.  Middle schoolers cut shapes out of...

Learners study facial symmetry. They explore lines of symmetry, and create illustrations with multiple lines of symmetry.

Students calculate the lines of symmetry using polygons. In this geometry lesson, students graph, compare and estimate using collected data. They identify different attributes to the polygons based on their sides.

Students investigate the concept of symmetry. They use cut out shapes that are folded in order to practice identifying the lines of symmetry. The activity is observed by the teacher working with students for the purpose of scaffolding...

Second graders find the lines of symmetry in pattern blocks and alphabet letters. In this symmetry lesson, 2nd graders discuss what symmetry is, view examples of lines of symmetry and apply what they have learned by finding the line of...

Fourth graders identify lines of symmetry using reflections and then construct figures that have one or more lines of symmetry. In this symmetry lesson plan, 4th graders use sets of shapes, pattern blocks, a mirror, and more.

Fifth graders explore the concept of symmetry using lines drawn through different shapes. The worksheet that is included in the activity should be used to chart the lines of symmetry for the different shapes drawn.

Students explore radial symmetry.  In this 3 dimensional art and geometry lesson, students identify examples of radial symmetry in everyday objects. Students create an imprint using radial symmetry on clay tiles.

Students explore symmetrical design and lines of symmetry.  In this fourth grade geometry lesson, students create their own symmetrical design and identify and label the lines of symmetry.  Students use one design to create a...

Students build sled kites. in this kite building lesson, students must read directions for kite building and enlarge the proportions of the given kite pattern. Students focus on the angles and line of symmetry in their kite. 

Lead your high school class on a journey through the world of symmetry and reflections as you discuss geometric principles. Pupils differentiate between reflections and rotations, explore rotational symmetry, and investigate how to...

Middle and high schoolers perform transformations. In this web based lesson, learners explore dihedral figures. They use the web tools to translate, rotate, and reflect figures. Pupils identify lines of symmetry.

Use the alphabet as a tool for teaching your class about geometric figures. Break apart capital letters into line segments and arcs. Classify angles as right, acute, or obtuse. Identify parallel and perpendicular lines. An excellent...

Learners explore lines of symmetry. In this symmetry lesson, students divide and combine shapes along basic lines of symmetry. Learners explore symmetry in real life objects.

Fifth graders identify lines of symmetry., similar and congruent shapes. They use construction paper to create their own symmetrical shapes. Students create stained glass frames containing symmetrical, congruent and similar shapes.

Third graders find symmetry in their body. In this symmetry lesson plan, 3rd graders look at different geometric shapes and identify which ones are symmetrical and find their line of symmetry. They measure body parts to the nearest half...

Students use video and the Internet to identify examples of bilateral and radial symmetry in the world around them. They create symmetrical reflection designs using pattern blocks and paper.

Second graders identify different polygons and their attributes. In this geometry lesson, 2nd graders get to know polygons by studying the vocabulary and finding polygons in their classroom. They create these shapes and then find their...

Fifth graders create designs that have lines of symmetry using pretzel and marshmallows. In this symmetry design lesson, 5th graders work in groups using graph paper, rulers, and toothpicks to plan their own lines of symmetry design....

Students define and discuss symmetry, line of symmetry, and congruency. They cut shapes out of construction paper, identify the line of symmetry, and if they are symmetrical and/or congruent.

Sixth graders build figures out of tangrams. In this symmetry lesson, 6th graders view tangrams and identify the polygons included in them. Students divide into groups, identify their tangram pieces, define the lines of symmetry, and use...
