| Introduction
to Geometry for Primary Students
These lessons are designed to guide young children through
an introduction to geometry. Children will learn to recognize
shapes and to create patterns, and will explore spatial
relations and symmetry. |
|
Investigating the Concept of Triangles and the Nature of Polygons
A two-part geometry lesson using interactive geoboards.
|
|
Polygon
Playground
Create shapes and pictures using polygons. |
|
| Shape Tool |
|
Mirror Tool
This Java applet helps students investigate symmetry. Mirrors
can be used to create reflection symmetry. Allows you to
create manipulate shapes in several different ways. You
can draw, color, paste, slice, rotate, reflect, expand,
and contract. |
