2D shapes game

 

This morning we have been recalling what we know about 2D shapes and their ‘properties’.  Can your child tell you what we mean by ‘properties’ of a shape?

One game we played was to get the class to give clues to the person on the hot-seat who had to guess which shape was hidden behind their back. This was good fun as we had to really think of good clues but remember not to give too much information too soon.  The children on the hot-seat did a really good job of visualising the shape being described.
