- Lesson plan: Geometry and Art: Art Museum Visit Geometry and Art: Art Museum Visit is the second lesson of a three-part unit integrating math, writing and visual arts. In this lesson students apply their knowledge of geometry by sorting, classifying and counting plane geometric figures during a visit to the art museum to look at and compare twentieth- century paintings. Students then collect data and share what they observe.

- Lesson plan: Inquiry lesson about color This lesson is designed to prepare students for a museum visit and the practice of looking at art critically with special attention to color choices.
- Lesson plan: Geometry and Art: Art Museum Pre-Visit Geometry and Art: Art Museum Pre-Visit is the first lesson of a three-part unit integrating math, writing and visual arts. In this discovery learning activity, students look at and compare two works of art. The paintings are quite different, but they contain many examples of geometric shapes. Students then complete a comment sheet, explaining what is similar and different about the works of art. This lesson can be used alone or used to prepare students for an art museum visit.
