In this geometry worksheet, students look at a set of figures and determine the amount of faces, vertices and edges of each, then name each figure. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

Students identify and explore the attributes of polygons. They design and create a quilt square using polygons, and produce a class quilt.

Students investigate symmetry in the real world. In this geometry lesson, students inter-relate math and technology. They create and name a variety of polygons.

Sixth graders explore lines and angles. They create visual representations of lines, rays and angles by drawing them on paper and using a geoboard. On paper, 6th graders write a summary of the characteristics of their representations.

First graders explore geometric shapes. In this math lesson, 1st graders sort shapes into groups and discuss the characteristics of the shapes. Students build geometric shapes using toothpicks and marshmallows.

Students explore geometry by drawing various shapes in class. In this triangle characteristics lesson, students identify the attributes that classify a shape as a triangle and practice using their bodies to create triangles in class....

In this lines and strings worksheet, learners connect the letters along the outside of the box with string to create different kinds of lines. Students complete 4 problems.

Fifth graders create math word problems. In this geometry lesson plan, 5th graders define perimeter and discover how to find the perimeter of a rectangle, a square and a regular polygon. Students write word problems on finding the...

Students engage in a lesson that is concerned with the concept of quadrilaterals and how they are used to create a rectangle for a door. They create a drawing of a quadrilateral while finding the sum of the angles. They practice problems...

Fifth graders explore polygons. In this math lesson, 5th graders find examples of regular polygons in the classroom and measure the sides of figures to determine if they are regular polygons.

Students examine a Webmath page, and demonstrate how to copy and paste. They create a computer-generated template page presenting the attributes of two- and three- dimensional shapes.

Sixth graders identify, compare and interpret the characteristics of polygons and angles in order to meet spatial sense, geometry and measurement standards. They also sort shapes into three categories, polygons (regular and irregular)...

In this math worksheet, students determine the name for each triangle according to its classification. Then they create a truss construction model.

Learners build a Lego design and then work with a partner to reproduce that design. They guide the building of the reproduction by description only and then check their work.

Students identify the properties of a dragon curve. For this geometry lesson, students identify sequences and patterns as they solve fractals. They investigate patterns found in nature.

Students identify the measure of missing exterior angles. In this geometry lesson,students define and apply the exterior angle theorem to solve problems. They use Cabri software to create different angles and make investigations.

In this vertices worksheet, students determine which figures have more or less vertices and name each figure. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this shapes and vertices worksheet, students determine shapes that have more or less vertices and name shapes. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

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...

Third graders describe and compare attributes of two-dimensional shapes. They explain geometric terms, angles and shapes. Students demonstrate each vocabulary word with their body and they mirror the body positions associated with each...

Students are introduced to the basic trigonometric identities. Using a diagram, they discover why the parts of the unit circle as named as they are and use equations to finalize the Pythagorean trigonometric identities. They also review...

Students investigate the Pythagorean Theorem.  In this seventh through twelfth grade geometery lesson, students explore the Pythagorean Theorem and its converse and use it to find the length of the missing side of a right...

Students identify five basic geometric shapes by naming them according to their defining characteristics. They draw the shapes and identify food with similar shapes.

In this using shapes in equations worksheet, 4th graders solve 15 simple multiplication and division equations by finding the value of each geometric shape.
