Then record the answers by coloring in the matching shape on your recording sheet.Ĭomplete the pattern puzzles by matching the shapes that come next in the pattern. Record the answers on your recording sheet.įirst, clip clothespins to the shapes that match. ![]() For example, the triangle is inside the wagon.Įxperiment with the 3D shapes and decide if they can roll, slide and stack. Then say the position of the shape to the object. Use a brad and a binder clip to make an easy spinner!įirst sort the pictures to match the position of the shape. Then use pattern blocks to cover the pizza pieces and fill the board. Keep spinning and playing until the hive is filled.įirst, spin the spinner. Then use pattern blocks to cover the honey hive. Sort the pictures to the correct shape mat: cubes, spheres, cones and cylinders. ![]() Sort the pictures to the correct shape mat: circles, squares, triangles, hexagons and rectangles. For this activity, you can allow students to use many different items to create the shapes, such as dry erase markers, play dough, pipe cleaners or wax sticks.Ĭenter 12: Count and Clip (Sides and Corners)Ĭount the sides and corners of the shapes. Then record your answers on the recording sheets. To begin, create shapes on the Geoboards with the given materials (pipe cleaners, wikki stix, play dough, etc). Students can assemble right onto this page and use the dotted lines as a guide. ** SEE TRIANGLE and SQUARE below for example! Center 7: Creating Puzzle Shapes (Circle)īuild 4 different Circle Puzzles with the different colored puzzle pieces.Ĭenter 8: Creating Puzzle Shapes (Triangle)īuild 4 different Triangle Puzzles with the different colored puzzle pieces.Ĭenter 9: Creating Puzzle Shapes (Rectangle)īuild 4 different Rectangle Puzzles with the different colored puzzle pieces.Ĭenter 10: Creating Puzzle Shapes (Hexagon)īuild 4 different Hexagon Puzzles with the different colored puzzle pieces. NOTE: For students who may lack spatial awareness, you can print the pages with the dotted lines (the puzzle piece pages) instead of the blank shape. Then, once students have started to build better problem-solving skills, they can progress to the more challenging puzzles. To start, introduce the easy puzzles first. I printed the puzzles on colored paper and laminated them. The REDpuzzles are EASY, the ORANGE puzzles are MEDIUM in difficulty, the YELLOW puzzles are CHALLENGINGand the GREEN puzzles are EXTRA CHALLENGING.

LET’S TAKE A LOOK AT THE MATH CENTERS FOR UNIT 9 IN ACTION… This hands-on, engaging and FUN unit will get kids excited about basic shapes! Not only will they become familiar with shapes and the names of shapes, but students will become MASTERS of these shapes as they learn to manipulate and construct them in multiple ways! Therefore, I am happy to share this hands-on math Unit 9 of the Kindergarten Math Made Fun Curriculum with you!
