Attributes of Plane Shapes

In this shapes activity, 1st graders trace 6 different shapes in 6 different colors, write an X on each side and an O on each corner and then write how many sides and corners each one has.

For this 2-D shapes lesson, kindergarteners review plane shapes attributes. They engage in a shape hunt in the classroom and create art using plane shapes. A good, hands-on lesson!

What is the difference between a star and a triangle? Its attributes of course. Discuss the basic shapes with your class, then have them practice identifying shapes by circling the one in each row that is different. 

Compare and classify 2-D shapes! Kindergarteners inspect the attributes of plane shapes and examine shapes in everyday life. They label the circles, squares, rectangles, and triangles they find. This is the website where you can find the...

There are five shapes for scholars to identify: rectangle, circle, square, trapezoid, and triangle. Although there isn't much here, consider projecting this as an all-class warm up. Ask kids to verbalize attributes of each shape before...

Learners examine different shapes. In this geometry lesson, students review the names and attributes of plane and solid shapes. Learners use shape cards to test their knowledge of each.

Invite your first graders to compose and decompose two and three-dimensional figures with this fun, hands-on lesson. They investigate and predict the results of putting together and taking apart two-dimensional shapes with rubber bands...

First graders explore the math concept of geometric shapes. In this plane shapes and solid shapes lesson, 1st graders examine visual examples. Students also practice solving problems that their instructors model.

Learners participate in a number of hands-on shape-related activities. They match and sort shapes by attribute, read books about shapes, complete shape art projects and explore and compare parts of shapes.
