Description
Geometry Sort
When I first started teaching Geometry Hierarchies to my students, they were taken a little back by it all. It's a concept that needs a good bit of explaining, and definitely a lot of practice.
These six sorts are a great way for students to practice the categories and subcategories of geometric shapes.
This Activity Includes Sorts For:
→ Polygons
→ Quadrilaterals (with both the inclusive and exclusive definition of a trapezoid)
→ Triangles
This product can also be found in my Geometry Unit {Lessons, Interactive Notes, Games, Task Cards, and More!}
**************************************************************************
Take a look at my other fifth grade math lessons:
• Decimals Bundle (NBT Standards)
• Whole Number Division (NBT Standards)
• Expressions, Variables, and Order of Operations (OA Standards)
• Coordinate Planes and Numerical Patterns (OA Standards)
• Measurement (MD Standards)
• Volume (MD Standards)
• Fractions Bundle (NF Standards)
• Line Plots (MD Standards)
• Fifth Grade Constructed Response Sheets
SAVE with Bundles:
• Math Interactive Notebook Bundle
• Math PowerPoint Lessons Bundle
• 5th Grade Math Units for the YEAR

CCSS5.G.B.4
Classify two-dimensional figures in a hierarchy based on properties.
CCSS5.G.B.3
Understand that attributes belonging to a category of two-dimensional figures also belong to all subcategories of that category. For example, all rectangles have four right angles and squares are rectangles, so all squares have four right angles.
CCSS4.G.A.3
Recognize a line of symmetry for a two-dimensional figure as a line across the figure such that the figure can be folded along the line into matching parts. Identify line-symmetric figures and draw lines of symmetry.
CCSS4.G.A.2
Classify two-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines, or the presence or absence of angles of a specified size. Recognize right triangles as a category, and identify right triangles.
