Students will use their hands to mold clay into shapes, then divide those shapes into equal and unequal quarters.

Dividing Clay Shapes

Slice those pieces and mix it up! In this lesson that follows “Slice It Up! Part One,” students will begin recognizing different ways to create equal shares in whole shapes, creating a fraction poster by the end of the lesson.

Slice it Up! (Part Two)

Use this lesson to help your students learn about partitioning shapes into parts with equal areas. Students will explain rectangular shape area in fractions of a whole.


Area: Whole, Parts, and Shapes

Help your students make sense of the greater than, less than and equal to in this interactive lesson! Your students will have opportunities to compare either two-digit or three-digit numbers.

Greater Than, Less Than, Equal To Game

Look all around! We can find 2D shapes inside 3D shapes wherever we go! In this lesson, students will sort shapes and recognize the 2D components of common 3D shapes.

Shapes Inside Shapes

Teach your students fair shares with this hands-on resource. Using this lesson plan, your class will create, label, and illustrate sums for fair shares using a folded paper model.

A Fair Share of Fractions

Shapes, shapes everywhere! In this lesson, your students will identify shapes and differentiate between the geometrical figures. They will also learn about sides and angles in every shape.

Quizzical Shapes

If you can see it, you can achieve it! Use this lesson to teach your students how to use visuals to determine if two fractions are equivalent.

Equivalent Fractions: Are They Equal?

Students will love composing and decomposing two-dimensional shapes using tangram puzzle pieces. Use this plan alone or to frontload key vocabulary and concepts taught in the lesson plan **Know Your Shapes.**

Composing Shapes

Give your students some early practice with shapes using this simple lesson. Young learners will have a great time creating shapes using pieces of string.
