SHAPES AND THEIR ATTRIBUTES
Colorful 2D shapes with names
Contributor: Destiny Williams Sample NearPod Lesson In this unit, students will learn the names of shapes and how to identify triangles, quadrilateral, hexagons, and squares based on the numbers of angles and sides. The students may not know that the pre x of shapes will determine the number of sides and angles the shape has. The students understanding the meaning of the pre x will help them better identify what each shape is. The students will learn through using labeled models and videos about shapes. Using physical models will enhance the learning of kinesthetic and visual learners by giving them a hands-on experience to show their knowledge. The video will increase knowledge for auditory learners because it will have repetition and a catchy ow that will cause students to remember When students learn the di erent types of shapes, they can identify them in everyday life like seeing a stop sign and recognizing it is an octagon or noticing that a door is a quadrilateral. Shapes are also necessary for architecture or becoming an artist. A. Reason about shapes and their attributes is stated in the Tennessee Standards of Math 2. G.A.1. Identify triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and cubes. Draw two-dimensional shapes having speci ed attributes (as determined directly or visually, not by measuring), such as a given number of angles or a given number of
