1. Lets learn about different shapes! Kindergarten Math Exploring Shapes

2. What are the different shapes? Squares Circles Triangles Rectangles Hexagons Cubes Cones Cylinders Spheres

3. Square Squares have 4 sides. Can you count them? 1 2 4 3

4. Are these the same shape?

5. Yes! They are! These shapes are both squares. They are just different sizes. Big Small

6. Circle Circles are round

7. Triangle Triangles have 3 sides. Can you count them? 1 2 3

8. Rectangles Rectangles have 4 sides Can you count them? 1 4 2 3

9. Can you see the difference? Rectangles have 2 longer sides and 2 shorter sides. Squares have 4 short sides.

10. Hexagon Hexagons have 6 sides. Can you count them? 1 2 6 3 5 4

11. Cube Do you recognize this shape? It looks like a square. What is different? It is 3 dimensional

12. 3 dimensional This means that it is “solid” An example of a 3 dimensional cube is dice!

13. 2 dimensional This means the shape is flat. Can you think of some shapes that we have looked at that are flat? Circle Square hexagon Triangle

14. Cone Cones are also 3 dimensional Can you think of an example of cones?

15. Cylinder These are also 3 dimensional. Can you think of some examples of cylinders?

16. Sphere They are 3 dimensional circles. Can you think of any examples?

17. Group time! Get in your math groups use the different shapes and objects and name what shapes they are.
