Learners use data on break and enter crime incidents to make a map that prompt discussion about the spatial location of crime in the city, why it would occur in those places, and how residents may reduce crime.

Second graders create and act out mirror images of their partners and the movements they make. They focus on spatial awareness skills associated with this activity, including exercising in large and small movements. Students observe...

Students become aware of spatial awareness as they stand in the middle of a hula hoop and perform "The Chicken Dance" to music. During the chorus, they run, hop, gallop, skip into other vacant hoops. Students follow directions given by...

Students compare and order objects according to length. They see that to conserve length, meaning that the length of an object is not altered by a change in its spatial position, even though it may appear to look longer or shorter than...

High schoolers examine tesselllations and their geometric properties. They have a better knowledge of polygons, can identify types of symmetry in tessellations. Also students use visulization, spatial reasoning, and geometric modeling...

Fifth graders explore the context of how and when to use tangrams in geometry. They create and draw a number of different geometric figures using tangrams. Students work on their visual spatial skills.

Students use Cartesian coordinates to plot current natural disasters. They relate location of natural disasters to their specific major project countries. Students tie in geometry within this lesson as connected to spatial relationships...

Middle schoolers in grade 7 and 8 work on outcomes related to spatial sense and geometric concepts, properties, and relationships. The lesson plan integrates technology and helps students be exposed to multimedia.

Fourth graders have a spatial awareness of the plants by orally discussing what they saw after they stepped out the model of the solar system. They recognize the similarities and differences between Earth and the other planets by being...

Students move with control in general space. They move with three different spatial distances and tempi. Students demonstrate understanding of the distance and speed of particles in matter: solid-close and slow; liquid-medium distance...

Students use locomotor movements, spatial awareness, and letter recognition. They play "Queen Bee of the Garden." Students perform locomotor movements (walk, jump, etc.) called by the teacher as a way to get around the garden.

Students apply the principles of aerodynamics by constructing styrofoam airplanes. By using simple tools and materials, they improve their spatial visualization abilities while increasing motor skills. After small groups of students...

Have your learners with special needs practice cooperative work skills, teamwork, and packaging. The kids will form an assembly line. Each pupil will add an item to a paper bag and then hand it off to the next person until the bag is...

You don't have to be a Minecraft wiz to know that this app has great playability for your learners! As afterschool programs and classroom projects around the world demonstrate, this game goes well beyond placing blocks and traditional...

Second graders receive a general overview about how maps are made and used, how specific information can be derived from them, and how a student can gain personal information about their surroundings from examining them.

Learners are asked to visualize three-dimensional figures and apply this visualization to problem solving.

Students invent an imaginary character that has the ability to time travel to China and create stories in the tradition of a traveler's tale, whereas their characters visit China's capital city, Beijing, and go to the Great Wall of China...

First graders match rhyming words. In this rhyming lesson students play a game with a partner matching rhyming words and a coordinating picture. The student pairs make a list of rhyming words that fit with their game.

Students view classical paintings. In this analyzing lesson, students view a Powerpoint of classical paintings and discuss the emotion, colors, and objects they see within the painting. Students list questions they would ask the artist...

Students use their visual-spatial intelligence to describe imagined boxes. A complete sequence of opening the imagined box and visualizing its contents is performed. Students write a summary of what they "saw" in their imagination.

Students identify and create simple geometric shapes and describe simple spatial relationships. Through discussion, hands-on activities and show and tell, they identify geometric solids in real life and create graphs of commonly found...

In this math learning exercise, students practice the skills of spatial reasoning and shape recognition. They cut out the pieces to the puzzle and put it back together.

In this worksheet, students will examine the number of beans, to numerically calculate and the number of beans and place the beans in its proper place in each space. This worksheet would best be used with second and third graders. Who...
