Showing Results for 2d shapes

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

Shapes to Scale

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

Classifying 2-D Shapes

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

Scale, Shapes, and Sets

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


Geometry Real Word Problems

Show your students how coordinate planes can be useful in seeing the distance between various locations! Have them draw shapes on a coordinate plane and determine the location of corners.

Are You At Your Destination?

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

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!

Eye love science! This lesson will help your students understand the parts of the eye that work together to make us visualize the different colors, shapes, and textures of objects around us.

I Look, I See

Classifying figures by features is a fundamental geometry skill. Use this lesson plan to teach your students how to categorize triangles by internal angle types. 

Classifying Triangles by Internal Angles

Geometry is everywhere! Lines, line segments, and points are all around. In this lesson, your students will learn about important aspects of geometry.

Geometric Ideas

Let your students' creative juices flow with this lesson that teaches them about collage and symbolism. Students will create their own collage self portrait and learn about Romare Bearden.

Romare Bearden Self Portraits

In this lesson, students will recognize volume as an attribute of solid figures and learn to calculate volume by counting cubes. This is a great introduction to the formula V = L x W x H.  


What is Volume?

Let your students decorate their own room with this lesson that has them use area to place furniture in a room.

Finding Area: Furnishing A Room

Substitutes can keep your students learning in your absence by using these engaging lessons, worksheets, and activities. In this one-day sub plan, students will measure volume, consider facts and opinions, and write an opinion piece.

Fifth Grade Daily Sub Plan C

Students will begin to calculate volume of different rectangular prisms using base ten cubes and then transition to using the formula V = L x W x H. Students will then practice using the legendary fifth grade activity, Cootie Catchers. 


Calculating Volume Using the Formula (L x W x H)

Teach your students to find the perimeter of polygons using real world examples. They will make polygon pictures using tangrams and practice finding the perimeters of the polygons in their masterpieces.

Polygon Perimeters with Tantalizing Tangrams!

Get your students to enjoy the fall weather while making beautiful leaf patterns inspired by Andy Goldworthy.

Fall Leaf Patterns

Students will apply the formula V = l × w × h to find the volume for rectangular prisms in the context of solving real-world problems.

Volume and a Building

In this lesson, your students will use their auditory, visual, and kinetic skills to learn about angles. Students will use their artistic and linguistic abilities to learn about angles and lines.

Angles and Lines

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.

Describing Angles

Obtuse, acute, and right angles, oh my! In this hands-on lesson, students will learn about different kinds of angles through motion. Mastering this pre-geometry skill will help kids tackle advanced math as they get older.

What’s Your Angle?

The activities in this lesson will engage students in thinking about how a person’s position, needs, and concerns affect their point of view on an issue. Students will apply this to characters in "The Memory String" by Eve Bunting.

Exploring Different Points of View

In this lesson, your students will calculate and illustrate area for rectangles using area models, where one side length includes a fraction.

Illustrating Areas in Fractional Units

Students will practice calculating volume as an additive property by making mock hamster mansions from boxes. Groups will calculate the volume of living space that they designed for their hamster in cm³ and document their work.  

Volume as Additive: Create a Hamster Mansion

Refresh students on the relationship between decimals and fractions when they multiply to find the area! They will find the area of a location in a picture by converting mixed numbers to a decimals and then using the area equation.

Area with Decimals and Fractions

Perpendicular, intersect, parallel! In this lesson, students work in teams to complete a Frayer Model on each of these terms to become masters of geometry vocabulary. Teach this lesson on its own or as support to the lesson What's My Line?

Geometry Vocabulary: Lines

Looking for a fun way to assess your students' knowledge of poetry? Try having a poetry harvest! With fun decorations, unexpected elements, and activity-based workstations, this fun test is sure to get your students excited.

Poetry Harvest

In this lesson, students will learn to program an animated figure using ScratchJr.

What Is Animation?
