Match the 2D shape [|properties.] [|Mr. Mumble] [|Sort] the [|shapes.] Assemble the [|square].[|Quadrilateral Quest] Make your own Quadrilaterals by [|dragging]the dots. [|Quad Squad] Now try the [|3D] shapes. Name the [|buried] 3D shapes. [|Geo Cleo and the Shape Caper] In [|Solid Pattern Pieces] students name the different faces of solid figures to make objects using a pattern. Play the [|Polygon Game] and then watch the [|video] on classifying [|polygons] based on their properties. [|Pete's Polygon] [|Congruent or Not] Play the Polygon [|Matching] Game, the [|Solid Shapes]game, and the Geo Sort game [|Vortex]. Find the [|shapes] in each picture.

There's room for everybody so don't leave anyone behind. Help Pablo finish his [|invention] by handing him the right shape. In [|Wrapping Paper Patterns] student decides which figures would result from a flip, a slide, or a turn.

[|Pattern blocks] can be used to teach patterns, symmetry, fraction concepts, and other math topics. Watch this video on [|patterns] Problem-solving skills will be challenged as you search for the right spot for each unique [|puzzle] piece. [|Brenda's Bedroom Border] Use [|Patch Tool] to design a pattern using geometric shapes.
