In this activity, students will click and drag to match 2D shapes with their attributes.

CK-12 Algebra Explorations is a hands-on series of activities that guides students from Pre-K to Grade 7 through algebraic concepts.

In this lesson, the students will use the Bee Bot on a map with 2D shapes and program the Bee Bot to move to and identify the 2D shapes based on their attributes. The students will review 2D shapes and their attributes, and learn how to use a Bee Bot. The students will be paired into a group of 3 or 4 depending on your class size. Each group will be given a mat with images of 2D shapes and task cards. The shapes have different colors and sizes. The task cards will provide visual tasks for the students. The students will take turns pulling a task card and program the bot to move to the shape that is on the card. The students will start on the first shape on the card and move to the bottom shape. This lesson may be split into two sessions if necessary.

Students help Peg identify shapes and create a spaceship using different shapes. Picture guides are provided to assist students throughout the interactive.

Students will be given a list of Geometric Terms and a value for each. They will work with a partner to search around the school for these items. They will write a sentence for each one.  This lesson was developed by NCDPI as part of the Academically and/or Intellectually Gifted Instructional Resources Project. This lesson plan has been vetted at the state level for standards alignment, AIG focus, and content accuracy.

This kindergarten math unit contains 3 activities related to 3d shapes and kindergarten geometry.

In this activity students will work in pairs to go on a treasure hunt throughout the school. They will each be given a map to follow. When they arrive to a place there will be a large colorful shape. They must record the name of the shape and then answer a question about the four animal shapes near the shape. There will be four animals at every shape but only one is the correct answer. Then they will take a token and go to the next place on the map. This lesson was developed by NCDPI as part of the Academically and/or Intellectually Gifted Instructional Resources Project.

Students help our school's PTA decorate for the upcoming Harvest Festival. The student's responsibility is to design and create a decoration that will enhance the theme of the Harvest Festival. Students learn about 2-D and 3-D shapes in the classroom. Then they use their knowledge to create a decoration of their own to share with the community.

In this assessment students will identify and describe shapes. Teachers will hand out the assessment task and point to figures from left to right. Students will identify the shapes they see in the picture. They will determine whether the shapes are 2-D flat or 3-D solid. Teachers will assess one on one. An I Spy Shape assessment task sheet recording sheet and rubric are provided.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach second graders an overview of rectangles, squares, circles and triangles.

This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to give fifth graders an overview of rectangles, squares, circles and triangles.

This parent guide supports parents in helping their child at home with the Kindergarten Math content.

This resource accompanies our Rethink Kindergarten Math Geometry unit. It includes ideas for use, ways to support exceptional children, ways to extend learning, digital resources and tools, tips for supporting English Language Learners and students with visual and hearing impairments. There are also ideas for offline learning. 

This unit was created by the Rethink Education Content Development Team. This course is aligned to the NC Standards for Kindergarten Math.

In this lesson, students explain decisions about classifications of triangles into categories using variants and non-examples and identify shapes as triangles.

In this lesson, students explain decisions about classifications of rectangles into categories using variants and non-examples and identify shapes as rectangles.

There are patterns in everything we see. In kindergarten, students begin to learn to recognize basic shapes like circles, ovals, squares and rectangles. They will learn that the shapes often form patterns that can be orderly and sequential and others that might appear to be random. Students will enjoy taking digital pictures of nature and finding the mathematical patterns. They will create a slide show together of the pictures they have taken and identify the patterns in each one.

This is the About the Cluster document written by the NC2ML group who created the instructional frameworks. This is a great resource to read while starting to plan for Kindergarten Cluster 4.

In this Khan Academy interactive, students will correctly name squares, circles, triangles, rectangles, hexagons, cubes, cones, cylinders, and spheres regardless of their orientations or overall size.
