Knowing the surface area certainly helps when deciding how much paint to buy before a project. Scholars solve for surface area, as well as volume and area, as part of the presentation from Grade 6 Claim 1 Item Slide Shows. Geometric...

Challenge your classes to design and market a new product. Collaborative groups use geometry skills to create packaging for their products. Finally, they plan a marketing strategy to present to a marketing specialist.

The humble soda can gets the geometric treatment in an activity that links math and science calculations. After a few basic assumptions are made and discussed, surface area calculations combine with density information to develop an...

Help learners understand that perimeter and circumference are one in the same. Learners apply their skills to determine the perimeter/circumference of triangles, rectangles, and circles. They then use the same strategy to find the...

Apply volume and area formulas to find the volume of any right prism. The 26th lesson of a 29-part module examines methods for finding the volume of right prisms with varying shapes of bases. Learners use the formula V = Bh to find...

Students investigate geometric shapes in their environment, make a geometric design, and write paragraphs describing the design.

Students examine and discuss the use of symmetry in a painting by the artist Roger Brown. They draw a geometric shape, divide it with a line of symmetry, and create a painting using the geometric shapes demonstrating symmetry.

Students predict what geometric shapes they think would be on the battleship; then view a picture and identify the various shapes they see. They take a tour of the battleship Wisconsin they identify various geometric shapes represented...

Second graders explore how musical instruments h ave varying geometric shape, and how those geometric shapes correspond to three-dimenaional shapes that students have studied.

Learners create wrapping clothes using paper or cloth scraps being sure to find or make geometric shapes. They create a visually balanced composition including symmetry,and repeated patterns.

Young scholars identify polygons. In this geometric shapes lesson, students identify and describe polygons. Young scholars create new shapes out of the shapes they are given.

Students identify and create shapes. In this geometric shapes lesson, students identify various polygons and try to create new shapes using existing polygons.

Fifth graders participate in a class activity that helps them learn some geometric terms along with their definitions. They describe relationships between two and three-dimensional shapes and analyze attributes and properties of...

Students participate in a unit on triangles. Through the unit they explore different way to make basic shapes using triangles. They also examine the basic properties of triangles and the relationships among basic geometrical shapes in...

Fourth graders use computer drawing tools to create a house of geometric shapes.

Students explore characteristics of geometric shapes. They participate in a paper folding activity to create various geometric shapes. Students design a mobile of the shapes they have created.

Students walk, run, jump, and hop all over and around geometric shapes. They identify the shapes by running to and standing on the called out shape.

In this geometry worksheet, students analyze 3 figures made of blocks. For each figure, students study a second image and indicate if it is a top view, front view or either.

Sixth graders determine the perimeter of geometric shapes with a grid at technology based resource. While looking at figures on an overhead, they determine how much border they would need to go around a figure. They also complete...

Ninth graders experiment with paper folding to create geometrical shapes. Students analyze the Copymaster of the problem. After the students have worked on their own for a while, stop them and discuss.

Students explore geometric shapes using pattern blocks. They use specific shapes to fill in triangles, color-in their solutions, and discuss the results with a partner.

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 identify different geometric shapes, and arrange them artistically in original jewelry designs.

First graders practice identifying simple geometric shapes. As a class, they discuss positional words and review the words for simple shapes and their characteristics. They work together to create their own puzzle using the shapes.
