Curriculum

CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.G.A.1

Recognize and draw shapes having specified attributes, such as a given number of angles or a given number of equal faces. Identify triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and cubes.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.3.G.A.1

Understand that shapes in different categories (e.g., rhombuses, rectangles, and others) may share attributes (e.g., having four sides), and that the shared attributes can define a larger category (e.g., quadrilaterals). Recognize rhombuses, rectangl...
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.G.A.2

Classify two-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines, or the presence or absence of angles of a specified size. Recognize right triangles as a category, and identify right triangles.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.5.G.B.3

Understand that attributes belonging to a category of two-dimensional figures also belong to all subcategories of that category. For example, all rectangles have four right angles and squares are rectangles, so all squares have four right angles.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.5.G.B.4

Classify two-dimensional figures in a hierarchy based on properties.

2D Shapes Games for Kids!

Kids love maths games! Engaging, colorful and fun, this 2D Shape Bingo game is a great way to consolidate learning about 2D shapes, their names and properties! If you’re looking for a whole-class game that will get your students spotting and correctly naming those shapes, this is it!

Included in this download:

30x player gameboards
2x blank gameboards
Set of caller cards

Such a fun, engaging resource I used with my Year 2 class! Enabled them to practice identifying 2D shapes in a fun, play-based way. – Teach Starter teacher, Dilek.

To play this game, the teacher or student will draw a calling card and read it to the class. Students will then look at their gameboards to see if one of the depictions on their board is an equivalent representation. Students will place counters over their board as needed. The first person to get 5 in a row is the winner! Play on for a full-card winner.

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding

A team of dedicated, experienced educators created this resource to support your maths lessons.

If you have a mixture of above and below-level learners, check out these suggestions for keeping students on track with the concepts.

🆘 Support Struggling Students

If there are students in need of support, consider completing this activity in a small group so the teacher can guide the students in identifying the 2D shapes.

Alternatively, provide lower-ability groups with reference cards naming the 2D shapes.

➕ Challenge Fast Finishers

Students who need a challenge can be encouraged to write additional clues for each image on their Bingo card.
