Triangle Attributes and Composing Shapes
2D shape detective sheet for 1st grade: triangle rules, shapes that compose a rectangle, a two-trapezoid hexagon, and pizza fourths. Covers 1.G.1 to 1.G.3.
1.G geometry: composing two-dimensional shapes to create composite shapes and building new shapes from them.

2D shape detective sheet for 1st grade: triangle rules, shapes that compose a rectangle, a two-trapezoid hexagon, and pizza fourths. Covers 1.G.1 to 1.G.3.

Defining attributes check for 1st grade geometry: pick the three true triangle rules, count sides and vertices, draw a shape with 4 square corners. 1.G.1.

Halves and fourths shape sort for 1st grade: six partitioned shapes to place in 2-share and 4-share columns, plus a which-share-is-smaller check. 1.G.3.

Composite shapes matching for 1st grade: shape recipes like 1 triangle and 1 square, a rocket to decompose, and joining half-circles into a circle. 1.G.2.

Equal shares exit slip for 1st grade: tick the true halves, name fourths on a partitioned rectangle, draw the lines, compare half to fourth. A fast 1.G.3 check.

3D Shapes Labelling for 1st grade: name cone, cube, cylinder and sphere, match a soup can and a soccer ball to solids, solve riddles. 1.G.1, 1.G.2.
1.G.1
“Distinguish between defining attributes (e.g., triangles are closed and three-sided) versus non-defining attributes (e.g., color, orientation, overall size); build and draw shapes to possess defining attributes.”
1.G.2
“Compose two-dimensional shapes (rectangles, squares, trapezoids, triangles, half-circles, and quarter-circles) or three-dimensional shapes (cubes, right rectangular prisms, right circular cones, and right circular cylinders) to create a composite shape, and compose new shapes from the composite shape.”
1.G.3
“Partition circles and rectangles into two and four equal shares, describe the shares using the words halves, fourths, and quarters, and use the phrases half of, fourth of, and quarter of. Describe the whole as two of, or four of the shares. Understand for these examples that decomposing into more equal shares creates smaller shares.”
