Beyond Dominoes: Polyominoes
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners add squares to paper dominoes to make polyominoes.
Exploring a Complex Space-Filling Shape
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build a paper stellated rhombic dodecahedron, a three-dimensional 12-pointed star.
Reflections
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners play a game and use pattern blocks to explore mirror images and reflection.
Exploring Tessellations (Grades 3-5)
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners repeat patterns in two and three dimensions to create tessellations.
Cut-Fold-Staple
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners discover how to rotate a flat shape into the third dimension. Learners draw and cut out a shape that has at least one straight edge on an index card.
Exploring Tessellations (Grades K-2)
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners repeat patterns in two and three dimensions to create tessellations. This activity combines the creativity of an art project with the challenge of solving a puzzle.
Building Three-Dimensional (3D) Structures
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners practice drawing 3D structures in two dimensions. Learners draw cube stacks from five different points of view.
String Shapes
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners work together to make polygons (many-sided shapes) with string. Learners sit on the floor and hold onto a piece of string slid between their thumbs and index fingers.
