Geometry Practice for Early Learners: Shapes, Sides, and Corners

Name:                              
Date:              

Today I am practising: Recognizing and describing basic two-dimensional shapes by their sides and corners.

1

A triangle is shown with three straight sides. How many sides does the triangle have?

2

A square is shown with four equal sides. How many corners does the square have?

3

A circle and a square are shown side by side. Which shape has no straight sides?

4

A rectangle is shown with two long sides and two short sides. How many sides does the rectangle have?

5

Three shapes are shown: triangle, circle, square. Which shape has exactly three corners?

6

A picture shows a square and a triangle. Which of the two shapes has more sides?

Grown-up guide
  1. Read each question aloud if needed, let the child point to or draw the answer, and praise careful looking rather than speed.
