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.

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

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.

In this fun space themed lesson plan, students will learn practice comparing and contrasting 2D and 3D shapes. This can be used as a stand alone lesson or pre-lesson for the Shapes Inside Shapes lesson plan.

Help your students get comfortable with 2D shapes using this fun arts-inspired lesson plan!

In this hands-on lesson plan, students will learn learn all about 3D shapes in the real world. Can be used as a stand alone lesson or pre-lesson for the Solid Shapes lesson plan.

The best way to learn about shapes? Make them! This lesson gets students using clay to make and learn about 3-D shapes.

Teach your students to predict and explain features of scaled regular shapes.

Valentines come in all shapes and sizes, but the most precious are those spoken from the heart. This Valentine’s Day lesson plan will require students to verbally name and describe shapes based on their characteristics.

Identifying shapes and colors will come easily to students after listening to songs, playing bingo, and coloring a worksheet!

2D shapes are all around us! In this lesson students will explore the properties of four different shapes—triangles, circles, rectangles, and squares! They will learn that they can find these shapes anywhere in the world around us.

In this lesson your students will classify two-dimensional shapes using a Venn diagram based on their features.

Use this fun and easy lesson plan to teach your students to predict and calculate dimensions for shapes to scale in sets.

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.

Your students will love classifying shapes into groups with this simple coloring and graphing lesson. It includes a bunch of fun worksheets and a song to keep young mathematicians engaged.

Help your students learn how to sort and categorize everyday objects in this fun partner focused lesson plan!

Where do they fit? In this lesson, students will discover how shapes, numbers, and letters can be grouped into categories. With adaptable content, students can also be challenged to consider attributes such as size and color!

Students will get comfortable ordering numbers while having fun using familiar, everyday objects to "map the room."

Students will become more familiar with common metric measurements by matching everyday objects with the metric mass and volume units they would use to measure them.

Your students will have a blast thinking about polygons and making these paintings inspired by Wassily Kandinsky!

This lesson incorporates everyday reading material into a fun creative writing activity. Students will learn new vocabulary and incorporate it into an original story.

Understanding how words translate into equations is a critical everyday math skill. Take your students step-by-step through this process in this lesson.

You'll see angles from every angle! Students will describe and compare different angles they see in everyday situations. Use this lesson on its own or use it as support to the lesson Classifying Triangles by Internal Angles.

Marry metric measurements to the everyday world around you! Use this lesson plan to teach your class the fun of converting metric measurements into fractions.

With this activity, students will identify shapes, build 3-D shapes, and practice describing shapes with a partner.

Shape up your students' understanding of geometrical attributes with this hands-on math lesson. Students will gain a better understanding of how to describe a shape by the number of edges and vertices it has, rather than by its name.
