Learning Resources LRM1762-GUD - Manual

kindergartners, and even first-graders, need to be familiar . W

orking

on the activity cards in this set will help students:

• describe objects and their positions in the environment using

different kinds of shapes;

• name shapes correctly;

• analyze and compare 2-D shapes by describing their similarities

and differences; and

• compose simple shapes to form larger shapes (e.g., two triangl

es

make a rectangle).

Suggested Use:

• Allow students plenty of time to touch, analyze, build and expl

ore

freely to ensure familiarity with the shapes prior to working on

the activity cards.

• Students fill in the outlines on the cards with shape pieces.

When arranged properly , the shapes should completely fill the

outlines, revealing a different design on every card. Note that

some cards require students to combine several different smaller

shapes inside an outline of a large shape. Remember that there is

frequently more than one correct combination!

• Use the shapes for activities involving patterning, symmetry

,

counting, tracing, sorting by attribute, or for active play at a light

table.
