Unit J – Special Shapes
This maths scheme of work for Key Stage One gets the children to recognise, describe and classify different 2D geometric shapes by their matching properties including their number of sides and vertices. The class can record illustrations and make models to show how to classify shapes into matching groups.
Recognise, describe and classify different 2D geometric shapes by their matching properties including their number of sides and vertices
Lesson One : Shape Search
Recognise and name different 2D shapes that can be found in objects around the classroom
Lesson Two : Shape Sides
Identify and describe how 2D shapes can be the same or different by counting their number of sides
Lesson Three : Shape Vertices
Group and classify a range of different 2D shapes by their matching number of vertices
Lesson Four : Shape Mysteries
Identify and illustrate a range of different 2D shapes by their matching properties including their number of sides and vertices to indicate their uniqueness
Lesson Five : Shape Sort
Explain and model how to use tables and Venn diagrams to sort a selection of different shapes into matching groups according to their properties
