The resource supports early pattern recognition and critical thinking skills in a visually stimulating way.

This resource consists of five maths worksheets designed for young learners in EYFS and KS1, focusing on 2D shapes. There are 5 worksheets in colour and the same sheets duplicated in black and white. The worksheets feature a variety of activities to help children become familiar with basic geometric shapes: Children can name different shapes, reinforcing their shape recognition skills. Children trace over the shapes, which aids in developing fine motor skills and shape familiarity. Children colour in the black and white shapes, using their creativity while practicing colour recognition. Children cut around the shapes, enhancing their hand-eye coordination and scissor skills. Finally, children can match cut-out shapes with corresponding outline shapes, reinforcing their understanding of shape properties and spatial relationships. Overall, the worksheets provide an interactive approach to learning 2D shapes, catering to the developmental needs of young children.

This resource helps enhance shape vocabulary and recognition for young learners. It includes three pages, each with 8 shape cards in colour. The three pages are duplicated in black and white. Children can name shapes, colour the black and white versions, and match them to the colour cards or individual cut-out shapes. Colour shape cards can be cut out and laminated for durability or the pages can be used as boards for children to match their shapes onto. Suggested Activities: • Children name shapes and match the black and white versions to the coloured ones, reinforcing shape recognition. • Children colour the black and white shapes, and a template allows them to draw their own. • Cut out. duplicate and laminate the colour cards for repeated use in hands-on activities and games such as making pairs and matching.
