Description

Students will love using these bright and colorful Task Cards with STAAR-formatted questions that cover sorting and classifying two and three dimensional shapes by attributes, naming quadrilaterals, and decomposing shapes into parts with an equal sized area.

You will love the diagnostic key that helps you easily identify student needs and form reteach groups quickly while you grade student work. The questions are rigorous and include convincing distractors (wrong answer choices), making these task cards a great tool in not only reviewing content but also giving you the opportunity to teach test-taking strategies.

Topics Covered:

  • Identifying Polygons
  • Classifying and Sorting 2D and 3D Shapes
  • 2D shapes include: triangles, all quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, octagons and more
  • 3D shapes include: cones, cylinders, spheres, triangular and rectangular prisms, and cubes
  • Naming quadrilaterals based on their attributes: trapezoid, parallelogram, rectangle, rhombus, squares, and those that are only quadrilaterals
  • Decomposing congruent shapes into parts that have equal areas

What's Included:

  • 24 Task Cards
  • Color and Blackline versions
  • Color-coded diagnostic key to help you make re-teach groups based on the TEKS your students haven't mastered.
  • Task card sized mini-cover and a mini-key to help with organization
  • Student Recording Sheets

⭐Task Cards include these TEKS⭐

3.6A Classify and sort two- and three-dimensional figures, including cones, cylinders, spheres, triangular and rectangular prisms, and cubes based on attributes using formal geometric language.

3.6B Use attributes to recognize rhombuses, parallelograms, trapezoids, rectangles, and squares as examples of quadrilaterals and draw examples of quadrilaterals that do not belong to any of these subcategories.

3.6E Decompose two congruent two-dimensional figures into parts with equal areas and express the area of each part as a unit fraction of the whole and recognize that equal shares of identical wholes need not have the same shape.

Teacher reviews

“Geometry is hard for my students because of all the vocabulary to memorize. This was another way to reinforce those concepts in a different way. I will use this every year.”

“Great resource that went along with our NC standards for 3rd grade. Kept kids active. Easy to use and understand.”

In addition to my work in education, I also run a STEM-based Christmas Light Show business. When I'm not creating new math resources or working with teachers, I'm designing and fabricating light shows sequenced to music with my husband and our team. That business came about after our family was featured on ABC's The Great Christmas Light Fight. My son attends the University of Texas, Austin and I'm currently soaking up every last minute with my daughter, a high school senior.
