Showing Results for sort two dimensional figures based on properties

Can your kid tell the difference between 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional shapes? Kindergarten is a good time to start!

Build student understanding of the defining attributes of triangles with this sorting activity. Students will cut out different shape cards and sort them into examples and non-examples of triangles.

Give your students a chance to sort polygons into categories that make sense to them.

Use this resource to help your students develop their understanding of trapezoids and other two-dimensional shapes. Students will compare the attributes of trapezoids to those of other plane figures, such as triangles and ovals, in this geometry activity.

Can your first graders tell the difference between a square and a cube? How about a triangle and a cone? Use this geometry assessment to gauge your students’ abilities to use attributes to sort 2-D and 3-D shapes.

This fun geometry activity challenges your students to identify, color, and count all the trapezoids and other quadrilaterals hidden amongst a variety of two-dimensional shapes.

Use this resource to review 2-D shapes with your young mathematicians. Students will identify the names, number of edges, and number of vertices of common shapes as they work to fill in the blanks of this 2-D shape chart.

Are your students still tripped up by those tricky trapezoids? This geometry worksheet can help! Give your second graders a chance to have fun while they practice trapezoid identification with this cut-and-paste activity.

Is your child in need of a geometry review? This worksheet covers the basic 2-D shapes, from circles and triangles to pentagons and hexagons.

Trapezoids are quadrilaterals with only one pair of parallel sides. This worksheet will help your students learn to identify and distinguish trapezoids from other two-dimensional shapes with the help of a word bank.

Pentagons make for perfect houses! Help students to identify and develop an understanding of this 2-D shape with this fun activity. Students will sort out the pentagons from other shapes and then turn them into houses.

What makes a hexagon a hexagon? How is it different from other polygons? This handy geometry resource with help your students to practice identifying the characteristics of a hexagon and comparing them to other two-dimensional shapes.

Your first graders probably have squares and circles down, but what about trapezoids and ovals? Use this great geometry activity to assess your students’ abilities to recognize and draw 2-D shapes by their name alone.

Triangles, trapezoids, rhombi...oh my! Identifying different shapes is an important milestone for young learners. Use this colorful activity to assess your first graders’ abilities to recognize and differentiate between 2-D shapes.

Give your students an opportunity to practice identifying and differentiating pentagons from other 2-D shapes with this fun geometry activity.

Help your child get a handle on the fraction one-half with this printable math worksheet.

Tackle two geometry concepts with this cut and paste activity. Students identify which shapes are divided equally into four quarters.

With this worksheet, your second graders will be tasked with identifying one half, two halves, and zero halves. This will help strengthen their knowledge of fractions!

Hexagons make for funny faces! Help your students develop an understanding of this 2-D shape by differentiating them from other shapes and then turning them into silly hexagonal faces.

Pentagons are easy to spot—if you know what to look for! Help your students develop an understanding of this five-sided polygon and practice 2-D shape identification with this great geometry resource!

Have your students put their knowledge of shapes and division to the test with this quick math assessment. This activity will assess your first graders’ abilities to divide various 2-D shapes into equal shares.

What makes a trapezoid unique? How is it different from a hexagon or a pentagon? Use this resource with your students to practice identifying the characteristics of a trapezoid and comparing them to other 2-D shapes.

If a shape can be folded in half so that the two halves match exactly, it’s symmetrical. Use this fun activity to help your students develop their understanding of symmetry by creating their own silly symmetrical animals!

A key characteristic of trapezoids is that they have a set of parallel lines—lines that never intersect. Use this helpful geometry resource with your students to practice identifying parallel lines in trapezoids and comparing different 2-D shapes.
