Geometry Unit and Symmetry Activity

I really wish that I would have taken more pictures throughout our geometry unit. There are so many creative ideas out there to help solidify these concepts for kids.

A few of the activities we did included:
  • building various 2D and 3D shapes using marshmallows and toothpicks
  • modeling various types of lines using pretzels (for the lines), M&Ms (for points and to create line segments), and candy corn (to show how the lines go on endlessly)
  • creating foldables to remember different types of angles using the idea from Fabulous Fourth Grade!  
  • we also talked about transformations, using gross motor actions, and creating an interactive foldable.
  • and my students' favorite activity:  the symmetry activity!
This center was pretty simple. Having 4th and 5th graders, it took just a few minutes of reviewing for the students to remember what symmetry is and for them to get the hang of creating a symmetric pattern. Students used their rulers to create the line of symmetry. 




We also added to a new interactive bulletin board, I will have to post pictures of that soon!

Hope your having a wonderful fall,

Mrs. Whitehair
