KS1 shape worksheet that helps Year 1 and Year 2 children name 2D shapes from their properties.
The page lists six shapes children need to identify, circle, triangle, pentagon, square, hexagon and rectangle, then sets out six short descriptions about sides and shape, including I have 4 straight sides all the same length, I have 3 straight sides, I have 1 curved side that goes all the way round, I have 4 straight sides with 2 long and 2 short, I have 5 straight sides with a name beginning with p and I have 6 straight sides with a name beginning with h. Children write the shape name, cut out the correct shape and stick it next to the description. A second task asks them to draw each shape themselves, and a third asks them to make a pattern using three of the shapes.
