2D shape fact file matching activity

Children create their own A5-sized 2D shape fact file. They cut out the shape headings, matching shape image and description from the muddled up shapes document and stick it onto blank A4 paper, folded in half. Finally, put all the pages together with the cover pages to create the shape fact file and write a blurb for the back. I originally created this as an independent task for my more able Year 3’s but this would also suit Year 4 children and as revision for upper KS2.

Included in this resource:
- Fact file front and back cover pages
- Muddled up 2D shapes document

National curriculum references:
- recognise angles as a property of shape
- identify right angles, identify whether angles are greater than or less than a right angle
- identify pairs of perpendicular lines
- compare and classify geometric shapes, including quadrilaterals and triangles, based on their properties and sizes
- identify acute and obtuse angles
