This worksheet is designed to help children sort and categorize different geometric shapes: squares, triangles, and crosses. The objective is for children to cut out the shapes at the bottom of the page and paste them into the correct column, as indicated by the shapes at the top.
There are three columns:
- First column (square): A blue square at the top signifies that square shapes belong here.
- Second column (triangle): A purple triangle at the top signifies that triangles belong here.
- Third column (cross): A red cross at the top signifies that cross-shaped objects belong here.
Cut-out Shapes:
The bottom section contains a variety of shapes within dashed lines. These shapes need to be cut out and pasted into their corresponding columns:
- 2 squares (turquoise and yellow).
- 2 triangles (pink and yellow-green).
- 3 crosses (green, yellow-red gradient, and a smiling turquoise cross).
Purpose:
- Shape recognition: This activity helps children identify and differentiate between squares, triangles, and crosses.
- Fine motor skills: Cutting and pasting improve children’s hand-eye coordination and motor skills.
- Classification skills: Sorting shapes into correct categories enhances logical thinking and organization.
This worksheet is suitable for preschool or kindergarten children, providing a fun, hands-on way to practice shape identification and sorting skills.
