What this worksheet teaches

• Count the sides and corners of a flat shape accurately.
• Tell flat shapes from solid ones - a circle from a ball, a square from a box.
• Spot shapes in everyday objects around the house.
• Continue a simple repeating shape pattern.

How to use this worksheet

When counting corners, have your child mark each one with a pencil dot as they count. Six-year-olds lose track of where they started, and the dots remove the double-counting.

Sample questions from this worksheet

1. Identify the shape: ■ = ______
2. Which shape has 4 sides? ______

Frequently asked questions

Should my child know 3D shape names now?

Recognising a ball, box and can shape is plenty at Grade 1. Formal names like sphere and cuboid usually arrive in Grade 2.

Is a square a rectangle?

Technically yes, but Grade 1 keeps them separate to avoid confusion. If your child spots it themselves, that is worth praising rather than correcting.

My child mixes up sides and corners. What helps?

Trace the sides with a finger and tap the corners. Different physical actions for the two words keeps them apart better than repeating the definitions.
