First graders begin to learn about plane shapes in Kindergarten. This lesson will serve as review of plane shapes' characteristics and extend into practice in categorizing shapes by defining attributes.

This task challenges a student to use knowledge of geometrical attributes to identify and describe shapes.

I love blending art and math. I want my students to develop a depth of knowledge for 2D plane shapes and distinguish polygon from non-polygon shapes.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Transformations move and modify geometric shapes. There are several types of transformations that all transform figures in different ways. These transformations can...

Explore connections between a 2-dimensional net and a 3-dimensional box. Later in this section, use equations with variables to solve real world problems that use 2 and 3-dimensional objects.

This task challenges a student to demonstrate understanding of the concept of two dimensional shapes and their properties.

Use this site to practice identifying shapes, colors, and animals with these interactive games.

An interactive game to find number of edges, surfaces and vertices of different geometric shapes.

The young scholars will find the area of each two dimensional figure on a net of a rectangular prism. In groups, students will cut out the net and create a rectangular prism. Groups will then discuss how to find the lateral area and the...

This lesson allows students to discover the number Pi. By measuring real life objects, students will get to see where the number Pi comes from as well as how the circumference formula is derived.This lesson plan was created as a result...

Create regular and irregular polygons and determine the angles and side lengths with this interactive exercise. Use Safari or Chrome browser.

Students make a series of geometric drawings of points, obtuse angles, rays, polygons, and the like. Each child is given one but not allowed to show anyone else. The drawing is then taped to the back of the child in front of them. The...
