Help young students get familiar with basic shapes found in Geometry. Our resource provides task and word problems surrounding real-life scenarios. See how many circles, squares and rectangles you can find in the picture. Explain how you would sort the shapes you find. Use different shapes to make a robot or house. Find and name the different shapes. Go on the Internet to find some solid shapes that are made from basic shapes put together. Count the number of sides and corners on each shape. Describe where each shape is found in a picture. Follow instructions to draw shapes in specific locations. Transform a shape by turning it, sliding it, or flipping it. Draw the missing half of a symmetrical shape. The task sheets provide a leveled approach to learning, starting with prekindergarten and increasing in difficulty to grade 2. Aligned to your State Standards and meeting the concepts addressed by the NCTM standards, reproducible task sheets, drill sheets, review and answer key are included.

Take your knowledge of shapes one step further as you explore polygons and triangles. Our resource provides task and word problems surrounding real-life scenarios. Identify polygons from other shapes. Know the difference between a regular and irregular, or simple and complex polygon. Explore equilateral, isosceles and scalene triangles. Label triangles as acute, right or obtuse. See how many different quadrilaterals there are. Extend your knowledge of symmetry by looking at rotational symmetry. Find the difference between congruent and similar shapes. Get introduced to surface area and volume of 3D shapes. The task sheets provide a leveled approach to learning, starting with grade 3 and increasing in difficulty to grade 5. Aligned to your State Standards and meeting the concepts addressed by the NCTM standards, reproducible task sheets, drill sheets, review and answer key are included.

Become an expert of 2- and 3-dimensional shapes with area, volume and surface area. Our resource provides task and word problems surrounding real-life scenarios. Measure angles with a protractor to determine whether they are acute, right or obtuse. Find the missing angle on a quadrilateral. Learn the different parts of a circle and how to calculate the radius, diameter and circumference. Find the pair of lines that are parallel, perpendicular, intersecting, and skew. Calculate the area of squares, rectangles, parallelograms, triangles, circles, and trapezoids. Then, find the volume of cubes and rectangular prisms. Finally, measure the surface area of spheres, cylinders, cubes, and rectangular prisms. The task sheets provide a leveled approach to learning, starting with grade 6 and increasing in difficulty to grade 8. Aligned to your State Standards and meeting the concepts addressed by the NCTM standards, reproducible task sheets, drill sheets, review and answer key are included.

Practice identifying different shapes with confidence. Our resource provides warm-up and timed drill activities to practice procedural proficiency skills. Match items in your classroom with certain shapes. Identify circles from squares and triangles. Complete the pattern of shapes. Draw a line of symmetry through shapes. Put the star in the right location. Count the number of sides and corners of plane shapes. Match each plane shape with its solid shape. Count the number of edges, faces and corners of solid shapes. The drill sheets provide a leveled approach to learning, starting with prekindergarten and increasing in difficulty to grade 2. Aligned to your State Standards and meeting the concepts addressed by the NCTM standards, reproducible drill sheets, review and answer key are included.

Get a handle on all things shapes as you properly identify different two- and three-dimensional objects. Our resource provides warm-up and timed drill activities to practice procedural proficiency skills. Match shapes with their names. Identify shapes that are parallelograms or polygons. Count the number of faces on a three-dimensional shape, and write the names of those two-dimensional faces. Know triangles based on their sides and angles. Identify between regular, irregular, right, and oblique pyramids. Use a protractor to draw specific angles. Use different combinations of pattern blocks to create hexagons. Transform shapes by flipping, sliding, turning, or enlarging them. The drill sheets provide a leveled approach to learning, starting with grade 3 and increasing in difficulty to grade 5. Aligned to your State Standards and meeting the concepts addressed by the NCTM standards, reproducible drill sheets, review and answer key are included.

This book provides a broad range of fiction and nonfiction passages that help students in the primary grades develop the skills necessary to excel on high-stakes writing tests.Teaching and testing writing skills is a hot topic for good reason: Educators across the country are under the gun to prepare students to perform well in high-stakes tests. While students are taught important writing skills, they typically lack experience in taking high-stakes writing tests—a significantly different skill set. This book is designed to help prepare elementary students for the high-stakes writing tests used throughout the United States.Each lesson provides a paragraph on a topic. Students then answer questions about the reading sample that are written in standardized test format and based on released test questions. The lessons can be used in two ways: as short writing lessons in the classroom or library for an entire class, or as independent practice exercises to accustom students to the format of standardized test. Students will receive invaluable practice in basic writing skills including spelling, grammar, sentence structure, organization and focus, and word choice.
