Description
Have students get back into the swing of talking about shapes with these summer themed task cards! Students will look at different shapes and name all defining and non defining attributes of the shapes shown. This set of task cards also includes a defining/non-defining attributes mini anchor chart to support students in reviewing their prior learning. These task cards are perfect for 2nd grade students who are reviewing their knowledge of shapes before moving on to more complex geometry concepts.
These 2nd grade addition task cards are available digitally through Google Slides™ and are also printable as well. They are summer themed and no prep. Just print the cards or assign digitally to use as a math center!
CCSS Alignment:
- 1.G.A.1 Distinguish between defining attributes (e.g., triangles are closed and three-sided) versus non-defining attributes (e.g., color, orientation, overall size); build and draw shapes to possess defining attributes.
- 2.G.A.1 Recognize and draw shapes having specified attributes, such as a given number of angles or a given number of equal faces. Identify triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and cubes.
Included in this Resource:
- 16 task cards practicing naming defining and non defining attributes of 2D shapes.
- Digital task cards for Google Slides™ (students may complete digital task cards ON Google™ or using the recording page).
- Recording page and answer key
How to use these resources in your classroom:
- Math Centers: add these task cards to your math routine for an exciting summer addition to your math centers. These task cards are easy to print or assign through Google!
- Distance Learning: Assigning this resource to be used remotely has never been easier! If students have access to their Google accounts at home, they can use this resource with the family or as extra practice at home.
- Independent Practice: allow students to use these task cards independently during their math block or morning work! They can solve problems on their own or work together with a partner. Each set includes an answer key, allowing students to self assess.
- Write the Room: Hang these task cards around your classroom and allow students to travel and solve each problem on their answer keys.
- Small Groups: Do you have students who could use a review? Use these task cards in your small groups when reviewing skills that students misunderstood. They are EASY for any guests who run small groups to use as well (parent volunteers and paraprofessionals will find using these to be a breeze!)
This resource is also included in the following monthly and year long bundles:
