Classifying Polygons
Exhibit your knowledge of 2D shapes and search for similar characteristics. This interactive diagram focuses on sorting polygons by common properties and then you select the correct label for each section of the Venn Diagram. Click the “Launch” button, and off you go!
Group two dimensional shapes into categories and sub-categories.  5
Sort shapes with the help of Venn Diagrams.
Practice identifying angles by sorting them into buckets.
Practice identifying angles and triangles by “shooting” them.
Identify your quadrilaterals. 4
Identify your shapes.
