shapes homework year 2

Geometry in Year 2 (age 6–7)

In Year 2, your child will learn to describe 2D and 3D shapes using accurate mathematical vocabulary. They will also learn to find 2D shapes in 3D shapes, to arrange shapes into patterns, and to talk about rotation.

The key words for this section are 2D , 3D , polygon , line of symmetry , non-polygon, and vertex .

What your child will learn

Take a look at the National Curriculum expectations for geometry in Year 2 (ages 6–7):

Describe the properties of 2D shapes

Describe the properties of 3d shapes, identify 2d shapes on the surface of 3d shapes.

‘The base of that cylinder is a circle.’ ‘The side of that pyramid is a triangle.’

Compare and sort common 2D and 3D shapes

Arrange shapes in predictable patterns.

For example:

  Your child might be asked to find the next two shapes in this sequence.

Describe position, direction, and movement

How to help at home.

There are lots of everyday ways you can help your child to understand geometry. Here are just a few ideas.

1. Explore shapes around us

Find everyday opportunities to talk to your child about common 2D shapes like rectangles, triangles, and pentagons. Try to use the language of polygons and non-polygons:

  • A polygon is a 2D shape that has three or more straight sides and angles (for example, a rectangle).
  • A non-polygon is a 2D shape with sides that are not all straight (for example, a semicircle).

When talking about 2D shapes, encourage your child to use language like  straight , curved , side, and corner (or vertex/ vertices ) to describe them. This will help them to understand the properties of 2D shapes and to know how they differ from 3D shapes.

Your child should know that 2D shapes are completely flat shapes. See how many different 2D shapes your child can spot in everyday life, such as on buildings, cushions, clothes, curtains, or in picture books!

2. Talk about 3D shapes

Talk to your child about common 3D shapes such as cuboids  and prisms (a prism is a 3D shape that has two identical parallel bases, such as a cylinder).

Point out 3D shapes in different orientations and sizes when out and about with your child. See if they can describe the shapes to you using precise language like  face, vertex (vertices), and edge .

Seeing lots of real-world examples will help your child realise that shapes like cuboids and pyramids are not always similar to each other. For instance, they could identify pyramids with different bases, such as triangular or square-based pyramids.

3. Guess the shape

Try this game with your child:

  • Imagine a 2D or 3D shape.
  • Encourage your child to ask you a series of questions to work out what shape you are thinking about.
  • See how many questions they need before they guess correctly.

Alternatively, you could draw a shape without your child seeing. Describe the shape to your child and see if your child can draw it from your description. Compare the shapes to see how close they are.

Remember that it is important for children to see shapes in different orientations. For example:

You could also try challenging your child to find certain shapes – a 3D shape with a square base, a 2D shape that has three sides, and so on. This helps them understand exactly what all these maths words mean.

4. Compare, order, and sort shapes

Your child needs to be able to compare shapes using the correct mathematical language.

Show your child two shapes, 2D or 3D (for example, building blocks, cereal boxes, cans). Can your child name the shapes? Ask them to describe to you what is the same about them and what is different. For example:

You may choose a cube and a cuboid. Your child may tell you the shapes are similar in that they are both 3D shapes with 8 vertices, 12 edges and 6 faces. They are different in that a cube has 6 square faces whereas the cuboid may have 6 rectangular faces (which could be a mixture of squares and rectangles).

To practise sorting 2D shapes, your child could put the shapes into groups according to the number of sides, whether they are regular or irregular, and so on. When working with 3D shapes, they could sort the shapes according to the number of edges, vertices, faces, whether they can roll or not, and so on.

You could ask your child to sort their shapes in any way they like and decide on the headings for the groups. This helps them to figure out properties of shapes independently.

5. Play position and direction games

Use the language of position, direction, and motion, including:

Left , right , top , middle , bottom , on top of , in front of , above , between , around , near , close , far , up , down , forwards , backwards , inside , outside , north and south .

You could also play a game outside where your child is blindfolded and you have to direct them towards a given location. Use commands like ‘Turn left and walk three steps forward, then make a half turn clockwise’.

Help your child to understand whole, half, quarter, and three-quarter turns both clockwise and anti-clockwise. It may be useful to connect clockwise and anti-clockwise with the movement on a clock face. This will help them in their understanding of angle, which is a measurement of how much something turns.

6. Explore symmetry

At school, your child will be learning to describe vertical lines of symmetry in 2D shapes. You can help your child practise with this activity:

  • Ask your child to cut out a selection of 2D shapes.
  • Encourage them to fold the shape in half vertically to determine if the shape has a line of symmetry.
  • They can then draw a dotted line to show each line of symmetry . For example, if your child has folded an isosceles triangle  in half in various ways, they will find that it has one line of symmetry.

shapes homework year 2

Mirrors are also a great way to explore symmetry. Draw half a shape and see if your child can tell you the name of the full shape. Then, put a mirror along the centre line to see the complete shape. Were they right?

For a challenge, encourage your child to begin exploring lines of symmetry in horizontal and even diagonal lines.

Year 2: Geometry: Properties of Shapes

New Maths Curriculum (2014): Year 2 objectives.

Pupils should handle and name a wider variety of common 2-D and 3-D shapes including: quadrilaterals and cuboids, prisms, cones and polygons, and identify the properties of each shape (e.g. number of sides, number of faces). Pupils identify, compare and sort shapes on the basis of their properties and use vocabulary precisely, such as sides, edges, vertices and faces. 

Pupils should read and write names for shapes that are appropriate for their word reading and spelling. 

Pupils should draw lines and shapes using a straight edge. 

Identify and describe the properties of 2-D shapes, including the number of sides and symmetry in a vertical line

Identify and describe the properties of 3-d shapes, including the number of edges, vertices and faces, identify 2-d shapes on the surface of 3-d shapes, for example a circle on a cylinder and a triangle on a pyramid, compare and sort common 2-d and 3-d shapes and everyday objects.

Years 1 & 2: Geometry

This list consists of visual resources, activities and games designed to support the new curriculum programme of study in Years 1 and 2. Containing tips on using the resources and suggestions for further use it covers:

Year 1: recognise and name common 2D and 3D shapes and describe position, directions and movements, including half, quarter and three-quarter turns.

Year 2 : identify and describe the properties of 2D shapes, including the number of sides and symmetry in a vertical line, identify and describe the properties of 3D shapes, including the number of edges, vertices and faces, identify 2-D shapes on surface of 3-D shapes and compare and sort common 2-D and 2-D shapes and everyday objects.

Order and arrange combinations of mathematical objects in patterns and use mathematical vocabulary to describe position, direction and movement.

Visit the primary mathematics webpage to access all lists.

YouTube: 3D Shapes Song

Listen to a song which shows examples of spheres, cylinders, cubes and cones. This could be used at the start of a lesson on 3D shapes before asking children to find examples of the shapes from a teacher selection and then within the classroom. Children could make up their own songs for learning about other 3D shapes.

Shape and Space

Quality Assured Category: Mathematics Publisher: Teachers TV

Outdoor learning always motivates children so the shape hunt idea is perfect for Year 1 learning to recognise shapes in the outdoor environment. A shape sorting activity helps assess the children's learning of shapes and their properties.

Making shapes with elastic bands is a great way of identifying and describing 2-D shapes and can be used as a paired activity with children challenging each other to create different shapes.

The first 6 minutes of this video show how children are guided into constructing 3D shapes from 2D diagrams using drinking straws and modelling dough. This is a great way of learning about the properties of 3D shapes, including faces, edges and vertices and also a great way of assessing this learning.In the plenary, children play a game where they listen to the properties of a shape being described including the shape of the faces. Though done with a Year 3 class this idea could be adapted for Year 2.

Shape Activities for Students Aged 5-7

Quality Assured Category: Mathematics Publisher: BEAM Education

The game What's that? allows children to practise matching names to shapes. 

The worksheet Shapes practises shape recognition and colours by asking children to colour in different shapes in different colours within a pattern.

Squares and circles is a worksheet which could be used to support children in recognising and drawing squares and circles. It could be extended to drawing a person from triangles.

Let's Investigate Triangles

An NRICH investigation where children discover the different shapes of triangles for themselves using coloured rods or sticks. This could be run as a whole class investigation, in small groups with adult support or as part of an enrichment task depending on when taught and the overall readiness of the class. It requires coloured construction rods but contains a printable sheet showing the rods which may be used instead.

Starting Algebra / Shape and Space

Quality Assured Category: Mathematics Publisher: Collins Educational

Sometimes you may want a different way of practising an area of mathematics or even a worksheet, game or puzzle. This book provides 40 worksheets which may be used in KS1 to practise many areas of mathematics, or to support children in KS2.

Drawing shape characters is a fun way of recognising and naming 2-D shapes It can be found on sheet 33 page 76.

In Year 2 children are asked to describe position, direction and movement.

Practise giving and following directions on sheet 32, page 73 where children learn about moving along a straight line and turning through a right angle.

Play 'Twiddles' as a way of practising turns. The activity could be adapted to include half and three quarter turns and to include turning through right angles in a clockwise or anticlockwise direction. This activity is on Sheet 34, page 77 on pdf.
