Showing Results for 3d shapes and edges and vertices

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

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

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

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

Shape Models

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

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


Kandinsky Shapes

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

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

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

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

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!

Teach your students about symmetry with real life objects! Have them draw lines of symmetry for various shapes, food items, and objects.

Slice it in Half!

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

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)

Go to any length to test your students' understanding of perimeter calculations. Students will use their understanding of the perimeter of rectangular shapes to create rectangles that have different side measurements but equal perimeters.

Perfect Perimeter

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)

Symmetry is everywhere, but it's often hard to notice. This lesson explores a few ways to identify it. By folding and making mirror images for different shapes, students will discover a new world of symmetrical figures.

Simply Symmetry!

Help your students use rulers in the classroom with this lesson! Encourage them to measure items around them using centimeters to understand shapes and sizes.

The Smaller They Come

Students will find angle sums using a baseball diamond diagram.

Adding Angles

Use this lesson to introduce the concepts of capacity and volume with young learners. This hands on lesson can be used as a scaffolded pre-lesson to Capacity Comparison. 

Exploring Capacity

What's in the bag? This fun math lesson involves using defining attributes as clues to draw conclusions. Young learners will have a great time making guesses about different objects and creating their own shape riddles.

Shape Detectives: What's in the Bag?

Get your students discussing the attributes of polygons by having them categorize statements as always, sometimes, or never true. Use this lesson independently or alongside *Characteristics of Polygons.*

The Attributes of Polygons

Students conduct a short research project on a chosen topic, combine their knowledge of their subject in an acrostic poem, then create a craft to illustrate their topic.

Acrostic Research and Craft

Where's the other half? In this lesson, young mathematicians learn the relationship between halves and symmetry through a fun scavenger hunt. Your students will have a blast figuring out what makes a shape symmetrical.

Half-to-Half Symmetry

How are quadrilaterals connected? In this lesson, your students will learn about the relationship between quadrilaterals by drawing, defining, and labeling different ones.

Are You Connected to Me?

A hands-on approach makes geometry fun! Use this lesson to teach your students about the basics of perimeter with geoboards. 

Perimeter with Geoboards

In this lesson, your students will collect and organize data to make a beautiful bar graph! They will also practice analyzing the graphs with the information they have.

Collect, Organize, Display, Analyze

Provide students with an opportunity to identify the wholes that are correctly divided into halves, thirds, and fourths (equal shares). Use this activity alone as a support lesson or alongside Cookie Fractions Fun.

Equal Shares

Students will create angles by folding construction paper, creating angle addition sentences, and then adding the sum of angles on their models.
