Curated OER
Geometry
Use this resource as an anticipatory set before a lesson on geometric shapes. A hidden picture slowly appears to reveal a circle, cube, and cylinder. It is a colorful presentation.
Curated OER
That's So Square
Students familiarize themselves with the three most common geometric shapes: circles, triangles and parallelograms. They sketch, sort, and name the shapes.

Geometry
For this geometry worksheet, students determine what if 6 different shapes are a circle, square, triangle or a rectangle. Students bubble in their answers.
Curated OER
Ship Shape
Second graders explore shapes. After reading books about shapes, 2nd graders describe the properties of various shapes. They identify shapes if they have been rotated, flipped, or slid. Students create shapes using drawings and geoboards.
Curated OER
What Shape is This?
In this geometry skills learning exercise, students respond to 6 questions that require them to examine geometric shapes and identify them as circles, squares, triangles, or rectangles.
