Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to teach the children to identify and describe how 2D shapes can be the same or different by counting their number of sides to match their unique properties
Activities in this teaching pack include a set of differentiated worksheets to identify and record the names of different 2D shapes by counting and listing their number of sides to illustrate their matching properties that are unique to each shape.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore how to identify and describe how 2D shapes can be the same or different by counting their number of sides.
This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to recognise, describe and classify different 2D geometric shapes by their matching properties including their number of sides and vertices. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
