Showing Results for solid shapes

Give your students a head start on 3D shapes with this lesson that has them use their observational skills to identify what differentiates the shapes.

Solid Shape Sort

In this lesson, your students will explore the properties of solids and learn to describe them in various ways.


A Solid Investigation

Use this lesson to show your students the different types of solids, liquids, and gases. Show them how a solid turns into a liquid and how a liquid turns into a gas by using real life examples.

States Of Matter: Identifying Solids, Liquids, and Gases

In this lesson, your students will play "I Spy" to identify 3-D shapes. They will use language to describe the shapes and be able to compare them easily.


Comparing Solids

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

Dividing Clay Shapes

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

In this lesson, your students will become familiar with shapes by identifying them in real life. Your students will love identifying how many sides shapes have by drawing and counting them!

Know Your Shapes!

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

3-D Shapes...Create!

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

Pick up the phoneme and practice! In this lesson, your students will practice their sense of sound-symbol relationship to develop solid spelling and reading skills.

Pick Up the Phoneme!

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


Kandinsky Shapes

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

Shape Models

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.

2-D Shapes

Build a solid foundation in number sense with this lesson all about the friendly number 10! Students will count with both fingers and base-ten blocks. This lesson can be used alone or with the lesson plan **Place Value Concentration.**

Building in Base-Ten

Teach your students about the shapes that make up the world around them with this lesson that has them identify shapes in the classroom and in drawn scenes.

The Shape of Me and Other Stuff

In this lesson, your students will break down composite figures to identify 2-D shapes that make them. Students will put together 2-D shapes to create a composite shape.

Break it Down, Put it Together

Teach your students about the attributes that make each shape unique. Use this as a stand alone lesson or as a pre-lesson for *Are You Connected to Me?*

Naming Shapes and their Attributes

Students will work hard to build shapes with straws in this hands-on lesson about the defining attributes of triangles. Use alone or with **Know Your Shapes.**

Triangle Time

In this lesson, your students will use hands-on visuals to learn about fractions! Your students will love using manipulatives to practice placing fractions on a number line.

Dividing Shapes and Lines

Introduce your class to composite shapes with this lesson that reviews geometric shapes and makes use of tangram puzzles. This lesson will give your students a strong base for learning geometry later on in their school careers.

Terrific Tangrams!

Students will explore geometric shapes by creating a painting of a trapezoid.

Trapezoids Are Special

Explore 3-D shapes with your students and help them identify and talk about the relevant attributes of three-dimensional shapes, all while using real-world examples! Use this as a stand-alone lesson or alongside the Shape Models lesson.

3-D Scavenger Hunt

Geometry is a core of mathematics in the early years. Help students recognize and draw shapes given specific attributes such as the number of corners and sides. This lesson can be a stand-alone activity of paired with 2-D Shapes!

Sides, Corners, and More, Oh My!

Bring on the polygons! Your students will build their understanding of polygons and sort shapes into categories based on their attributes in this lesson. 

Characteristics of Polygons

Practice subtraction with art! Help early learners grasp the concept of "taking away" using drawings. This lesson helps students work toward subtraction with numerals, and the mastery of simple shapes.

Art Subtraction

Students will learn out how to partition a rectangle using by partitioning shapes with rows and columns.

How Many Squares?

Students will solve area problems by multiplying side lengths for rectangular shapes in real world contexts. 


Geometry Real Word Problems

Notetaking doesn’t just have to fit in a square! In this lesson, students will use different shapes to help them take notes and remember what they should be paying attention for as they read. 

Fill in the Shape Notetaking

It’s pizza time! Students will be introduced to the concept of partitioning shapes to create fractions that demonstrate halves, fourths, and eighths. This lesson is the first of two lessons that address second grade fraction concepts.

Slice It Up! (Part One)

Your students will enjoy this hands on lesson where they make simple solutions and mixtures. They will have an opportunity to predict and observe solids that dissolve in water.
