What educators are saying
The variety and feasibility to use this resource with all kinds of learners is what makes this a great resource. Thank you.
Description
This resource is a set of posters meant to help your kids understand how we classify shapes into categories based on their attributes.
For example - there are triangles that share attributes (three sides and angles), but there are also three different KINDS of triangles (scalene, right, isosceles, and equilateral). Another example might be that that a square can be classified as a rectangle because it has four sides and four right angles.
If you want your students to stop using descriptions like, "stretched out square" to describe a rectangle, and instead use vocabulary like sides, angles, parallel, etc. - this is a wonderful resource.
I have included both a color and black and white copy for easier printing.

CCSS2.G.A.1
Recognize and draw shapes having specified attributes, such as a given number of angles or a given number of equal faces. Identify triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and cubes.
CCSS3.G.A.1
Understand that shapes in different categories (e.g., rhombuses, rectangles, and others) may share attributes (e.g., having four sides), and that the shared attributes can define a larger category (e.g., quadrilaterals). Recognize rhombuses, rectangles, and squares as examples of quadrilaterals, and draw examples of quadrilaterals that do not belong to any of these subcategories.
