Today, we will learn about different shapes like circles, squares, triangles, and rectangles. A circle has no corners and is round, while a square has four equal sides and four corners. Triangles have three sides and three corners, and rectangles have two long sides and two short sides. Let's look around the classroom and find objects that match these shapes!
Let's look at this picture of a house. The roof is a triangle, the walls are rectangles, and the door is a rectangle too. If I ask you how many corners are in the roof, you would say three because a triangle has three corners. Now, how many sides does the door have? That's right, it has four sides because it is a rectangle!
Now, I will give you a set of shape cards. Your task is to sort them into groups based on their shapes. You will have circles, squares, triangles, and rectangles. After sorting, we will discuss how many shapes are in each group and what makes them the same or different. Remember to count the sides and corners of each shape as you sort!
For your independent practice, I want you to draw your favorite shape on a piece of paper. Label the shape and write down how many sides and corners it has. Once you finish, share your drawing with a partner and explain why you chose that shape. This will help you practice describing shapes and their properties!
