Two-Dimensional Objects

Some of the best practice with shape identification comes from drawing the figures first-hand. Young geometers draw nine two-dimensional shapes: rectangle, circle, square, pentagon, hexagon, octagon, triangle with three equal sides,...

Now that your learners recognize two-dimensional shapes, can they find what each half of those shapes would look like? There are seven shapes on this worksheet, bisected by a dotted line. Scholars examine these shapes and match them to a...

Get to know eight shapes by name: square, rectangle, triangle, pentagon, hexagon, and octagon. Young geometers write the correct name below each of these shapes, using a word bank for guidance. Then, they draw two of the shapes (hexagon...

Inside each of these two-dimensional shapes, scholars identify the figure by writing its name. There is a word bank for them to work from, but some shape names are used multiple times. There are six identifiers they use: pentagon,...

Three dimensional objects are not flat! Young learners explore 3-D shapes and their many faces. Have them find some of the 3-D objects in their environment, such as: spheres, rectangular prisms, cones, cubes, cylinders, and pyramids....

Explore shape attributes with young geometers as they sort nine shapes based on their corners. Scholars determine whether or not each shape has a square corner, drawing it in the appropriate space accordingly. They are encouraged to use...

Add some visual support to your elementary geometry lessons with this set of printable shape cards. From triangles and squares to octagons and nanogons, this simple resource can be used in countless ways to develop children's knowledge...

Use this introductory geometry worksheet as a projected warm-up for your class, doing it together and then revealing the explanation on the bottom half. Learners examine a square and a circle, each bisected by a dotted line. They must...

Number 2 is star of a music video featuring a friendly duo that points out pairs of objects—gloves, ears, shoes, and more!

Bring three-dimensional shapes to life in your classroom. First introduce the vocabulary of three-dimensional shapes, such as sphere, cube, and pyramid. Then, show your kids examples of how to use two-dimensional objects draw...
