This resource is from Tools4NCTeachers. This file contains a set of 3 tasks (including scoring rubric and recording sheets). The tasks may be used for instruction or assessment.The focus of standard G.1 is on recognizing/drawing 2D shapes and recognizing/describing 3D shapes. Please remix this resource to help create additional tasks - especially for 3D shapes!
This resource is from Tools4NCTeachers.In this introductory lesson, students will explore and sort two-dimensional shapes and describe how they were sorted using defining and non-defining attributes. This lesson could be modified by exploring and sorting three-dimensional shapes. Remix this lesson to include extension ideas.
This resource is from Tools4NCTeachers. In this lesson students will sort polygons, paying attention to their attributes. They will use geometric vocabulary and identify their sorting rules. Sorting cards, activity sheets, and sample student solutions are included within this lesson.

This lesson focuses on "visualization". This includes being able to identify geometric shapes in the environment. As students begin to see geometry in their world, the content becomes more relevant and interesting to them.

After reading the book "Shapes", students discuss attributes of shapes and take a shape walk.
One of the four goals in geometry is Visualization, this includes being able to identify geometric shapes in the environment. As students begin to see geometry in their world, the content becomes more relevant and interesting to them.

This is lesson one in a series of six lessons focused around developing a mathematical community at the beginning of the school year. The primary goal of this lesson is for students to begin establishing norms for math class. A secondary goal is to start exploring a non-standard problem that has more than one possible solution.

Students will practice reflection/transltion of shapes with a card set and white boards. This is a lesson plan used to teach high school geometry. Materials are provided with the lesson.
Students learn about ultrasound and how it can be used to determine the shapes and contours of unseen objects. Using a one-dimensional ultrasound imaging device (either prepared by the teacher or put together by the students) that incorporates a LEGO(TM) MINDSTORMS(TM) NXT intelligent brick and ultrasonic sensor, they measure and plot the shape of an unknown object covered by a box. Looking at the plotted data, they make inferences about the shape of the object and guess what it is. Students also learn how engineers use high-frequency waves in the design of medical imaging devices, the analysis of materials and oceanographic exploration. Pre/post quizzes, a worksheet and a LEGO rbt program are provided.
