Activities in this teaching pack include a worksheet to play a game to identify and describe different 2D shapes by their matching properties including numbers of sides and corners and a template to use mouldable materials to make model squares which can be used to complete a rocket shape.

The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to identify and describe square shapes by their matching number of sides and corners.

This lesson is part of a numeracy scheme of work to get the children to identify, describe and compare different 2D shapes by their individual shape properties including numbers of sides and corners. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
