LEARNING GOALS:
2D Shapes:

• I can identify and describe different shapes.
• I can sort 2D shapes by the number of sides and vertices.
• I can use different shapes to design patterns.

Symmetry:

• I can identify symmetrical pictures.
• I can draw the line(s) of symmetry in a picture or shape.
• I can draw the missing part of a symmetrical picture.
• I can describe symmetrical designs.

3D Figures:

• I can identify 3D figures.
• I can sort and classify 3D figures by their properties.
• I can describe the skeletons of prisms and pyramids.

WAYS TO SUPPORT AT HOME:

• Notice the different shapes at home and in nature.
• Use the proper names for identifying shapes and correct your child if they use the wrong name (ie. it’s an oval, not a circle). 
• Build or draw objects and people using different shapes.
• Notice symmetrical things at home and in nature.
• Ask your child if certain things are symmetrical and why/why not.
• Practice drawing or building symmetrical designs or pictures
• Notice the different 3D figures at home and in nature.
• Use the proper names for identifying 3D figures and correct your child if they use the wrong name (ie. it’s a sphere, not a circle).
