What this worksheet teaches

• Show understanding of Shapes in writing, so an adult can see the method used rather than only the final answer.
• Use the vocabulary of Shapes correctly when reading each instruction and explaining an answer aloud.
• Recognise the common mistakes in Shapes by checking completed work before handing the sheet in.
• Apply Shapes to short, familiar examples so the skill transfers beyond this worksheet.

How to use this worksheet

Print this sheet and let your child attempt it without help first, then sit down together and review it question by question. Where an answer is wrong, ask them to explain the step they took rather than telling them the correct answer straight away - in Grade 5 Math, most errors are a slipped step rather than a missing idea, and hearing the reasoning aloud tells you which one it is.

Sample questions from this worksheet

1. Which one is a 3D shape?
2. A shape with no straight sides:

Frequently asked questions

How long should this worksheet take?

Most Grade 5 children finish a single sheet in ten to twenty minutes. If it is taking much longer, the level is probably too high for now - try an earlier worksheet on Shapes and come back to this one.

Is there an answer key?

Answers are not printed on the sheet. For Grade 5 Math practice we suggest checking the work together, because talking through a wrong answer teaches more than comparing it with a key.

Can I use this worksheet in my classroom?

Yes. Teachers and tutors are welcome to print and photocopy this sheet for their own students. Worksheets on the same topic are numbered in teaching order, which makes it easy to give different groups different sheets.
