2D and 3D Shape Patterns - PowerPoint
Maths Resource Description
Geometric understanding begins early, and a set of resources for Year 1 Geometry focusing on the properties of shape aims to make learning about 2D and 3D shapes both engaging and educational. The materials include a PowerPoint presentation that guides students through various activities centred on recognising and completing shape patterns. The interactive slides prompt children to identify and continue sequences of shapes, fostering their ability to discern patterns and shapes in a fun and interactive way.
The worksheets accompanying the presentation further challenge the students to draw missing shapes, create patterns using given shapes, and answer questions about the patterns they observe. These exercises not only reinforce their knowledge of shape names and properties but also encourage critical thinking as they determine which shapes fit into a sequence or spot errors in a pattern. The activities are designed to be accessible and enjoyable, ensuring that students can confidently recognise and describe 2D and 3D shapes, their colours, and positions within a pattern. For added support, answer sheets are provided to facilitate learning and self-assessment.
