Go on a shape hunt at home or at the store! There are lots of ways to practice identifying shapes with your child.
I spy a circle! Circles are special because they do not have any corners.
This shape has four sides, but they are not all the same length. These two sides are equal, and these two sides are equal. So, this is a rectangle!
I spy a square! A square has sides that are all the same length. A side is a straight line that forms a shape. Squares have four sides.
Ask your child, can you find any triangles? Triangles have three sides and three corners. When two sides of a shape touch, they form a corner.
By the end of preschool, your child will know four shapes: circles, rectangles, squares, and triangles.
In Kindergarten, your child will also look for hexagons, cubes, cones, cylinders, and spheres when you go on a shape hunt.
Look for shapes wherever you are! Don’t forget to talk about sides and corners.
