Shape Cut and Sort WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

Learners can begin to discuss properties such as how many sides shapes have and sort shapes into groups with this activity. Here students will cut out images of 11 different polygons and will be asked questions such as “can you find all the shapes with more than 4 sides”. This works well as a discussion activity.
