Description
Are you looking for a hands on activity on measurable attributes of 2D and 3D shapes for special education? This activity comes with 20 different task cards and a key terms definitions card, each asking a question about a 2D or 3D shape. Then the students will use a clothes peg to indicate which measurable attribute the question is referring to. This activity is ideal for the Grade 1 measurement unit.
Key concepts
- Every shape or object has several attributes that can be compared. The same shape or object can be described and compared using different attributes.
- There are particular words that describe commonly measured attributes:
- length is the distance from one point to the other and can be measured in any direction;
- area is the amount of surface an object has;
- mass is how heavy an object is;
- capacity is the amount an object holds;
- angle is the amount of turn between one line and another.
LOW PREP!
- Print (I suggest 2-4 slides per page so it is task card size)
- Cut each task card
- Laminate so it can be reused year after year!
- Student reads the question and answers it by using a clothes peg on the correct answer
- Store the cards in a container, ziploc bag or keyring
