2D shapes and their properties

Players take it in turns to choose a dot on the grid. The winner is the first to have four dots that can be joined to form a square.

Can you recreate squares and rhombuses if you are only given a side or a diagonal?

These pictures were made by starting with a square, finding the half-way point on each side and joining those points up. You could investigate your own starting shape.

This activity focuses on similarities and differences between shapes.

This challenge invites you to create your own picture using just straight lines. Can you identify shapes with the same number of sides and decorate them in the same way?

A task which depends on members of the group noticing the needs of others and responding.

This task develops spatial reasoning skills. By framing and asking questions a member of the team has to find out what mathematical object they have chosen.

Can you each work out what shape you have part of on your card? What will the rest of it look like?

These four touching circles have another circle hiding amongst them...

Three circles of different radii each touch the other two. What can you deduce about the arc length between these points?
