Lesson One – Shape Facts
This maths teaching pack for Key Stage One gets the children to explore and record how to select and organise different groups of geometric shapes to match statements about their specific properties.
The class can identify and define the meaning of some vocabulary words that can be used to differentiate between different 2D shapes including sides and vertices.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to explore and record how to select and organise different groups of geometric shapes to match statements about their specific properties
Activities in this teaching pack include a set of cards to select and organise groups of shapes to match statements about their individual properties and a template to identify and record how to group sets of shapes using a Venn diagram by their matching individual properties including their number of sides and vertices.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explore and organise groups of geometric shapes to match statements about their specific properties.
This lesson is part of a maths scheme of work to get the children to identify, describe and compare different 2D shapes by their matching individual properties including the number of sides, vertices and lines of symmetry. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
