Shape Sort
This maths teaching pack for Key Stage Two gets the children to practise using Carroll Diagrams to identify and sort a range of different shapes by their matching individual properties including parallel lines and types of angles.
The class can identify special vocabulary words that can be used to describe how the 2D shapes have been sorted into groups for each category on the Carroll Diagrams.
Download this teaching pack including a lesson plan, classroom activities and an interactive presentation to teach the children to practise using Carroll Diagrams to identify and sort a range of different shapes by their matching individual properties including parallel lines and types of angles
Activities in this teaching pack include a set of differentiated worksheets to practise using Carroll Diagrams to identify and sort a range of different shapes by their individual properties including right angles for support ability levels, parallel lines for core ability levels and lines of symmetry for extension ability levels.
The interactive presentation gets the children to explain how to use Carroll Diagrams to identify and sort a range of different shapes by their individual properties.
This lesson can support development in learning how to differentiate between shapes by their matching properties. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and an interactive presentation to introduce concepts and key skills.
