In this lesson, students will watch videos about shapes and identify shapes in their environment and in art. Links to the videos are at the bottom of the lesson overview, other material links are also provided.

Two and three-dimensional geometric shape are explored in these exercises. Each activity has teacher notes, activity instructions, and a worksheet when necessary.

This interactive exercise focuses on determining probabilities associated with repeated coin tosses and building tree diagrams to take math out of the classroom and into the real world.

In this Five E's AMSTI lesson, students discover relationships between shapes. Students discover multiple ways to combine shapes to fill the area of a given shape using real and virtual pattern blocks, and share their solutions with...

Students make a series of geometric drawings of points, obtuse angles, rays, polygons, and the like. Each child is given one but not allowed to show anyone else. The drawing is then taped to the back of the child in front of them. The...

Use this site to practice identifying shapes, colors, and animals with these interactive games.

Using an engaging approach, this lesson requires learners to record the volume of cylinders as a function of the radius. Students will construct and measure the volume of several cylinders and then begin comparing these shapes.

This tutorial explains the concept of surface area, and then goes through multiple shapes offering the specific surface area formula for each one.

Use this lesson plan to help students learn about cylinders. Students will be creating cylinders, and comparing them and their capacity. This engaging, hands-on lesson will hold student interest and be very beneficial to student learning.
