2. Polygons Shapes with many sides!

3. Two-dimensional Shapes (2D) These shapes are flat and can only be drawn on paper. They have two dimensions – length and width. They are sometimes called plane shapes.

4. Polygons Two-dimensional shapes that have sides made from straight lines. E.g. triangles squares hexagons

5. Pentagon A two-dimensional shape with five straight sides and five angles.

6. Hexagon A two-dimensional shape with 6 straight sides and 6 angles.

7. Octagon A two-dimensional shape with 8 straight sides and 8 angles.
