Comparing shapes can be integral to shape recognition- use this multiple-choice worksheet to help scholars know which is which...and which is not! In 4 questions, students observe multiple figures and identify the quadrilateral,...

Which item is shaped like a cone? Give students a chance to compare shapes, determining which item represents the prompted shape or figure (and which don't). Through 4 multiple-choice questions, scholars identify a cone, a cube, a...

In this geometry skills activity, students examine 6 geometric figures and identify them as spheres, cylinders, cones, or cubes.

In this geometry skills instructional activity, students examine 6 geometric figures and identify them as spheres, cylinders, cones, or cubes.

In this identifying shapes activity, students tell which shapes in sets are named, choosing from cube, triangle, cone or sphere. A reference web site is given for additional activities.

In this math skills instructional activity, students answer the 6 questions on the instructional activity using various math skills. Students practice counting, adding, drawing, measuring and working with shapes.

Fourth graders find the volume of cubes and cylinders. To determine volume, they fill large cubes with centimeter cubes. They discuss the formula used to find the volume of a cube. Students explore why the solution to the volume of a...

Students examine the relationship between three dimensions and two dimensions by working with shadows of cubes and other models. Students work in groups and use Zome System Creator Kits to try and build a shape other than a cube that...

Students investigate what happens with different sized cubes are constructed from surface cubes. The students solve various problems by predicting patterns, determining exponents and graphing results.

Students explore finding the surface area and volume of cubes and cylinders. They construct similar three-dimensional figures from a two-dimensional drawing. Students derive the formula for volume and surface area through examination...
