3D shapes matching
Can you match these shapes with the correct definitions?
Mirror line colouring
Can you colour the squares so that each side of the picture is an exact mirror image?
Sorting regular and irregular shapes
Regular shapes have equal-length sides and all the internal angles are equal. Can you cut out the shapes and sort them into the Venn diagram? Then draw a circle around the regular shapes and write a definition of an irregular shape.
Reflecting, rotating and translating shapes
A KS2 maths worksheet created by an experienced teacher to help your child understand reflecting, rotating and translating shapes.
Can you draw this shape’s reflection in the mirror line?
Can you draw this shape’s reflection in the mirror line?
Opening shapes to make nets
Can you make a net from an old cereal box and an old Toblerone box? Then see if you can use these nets to make some 3D shapes.
Finding unknown angles in quadrilaterals
See if you can work out the missing angles in each of these quadrilaterals.
Classifying quadrilaterals
A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. Can you label each of these quadrilaterals to show what you think it is?
Working out area by counting squares
The area of a shape is the total amount of space that it covers. Can you work out the area of these shapes?
Shapes and scale factors
Let's try working with scale factors. Can you increase this shape by a scale factor of 3?
Right angles and turns
Look at the pictures below to work out the answers to these angles and turns questions. You could try standing in for the girl in the picture and turning yourself, too! When you answer each of these questions, imagine that Claire has gone back to her starting position each time.
Regular and irregular polygons
For each of the following shapes, say whether they are regular or irregular and name the shape. The first one has been done for you. You may want to use a ruler and protractor to check the sides and angles
Classifying triangles
How well do you know your triangles? Label each of these triangles to show which type you think it is.
Sorting regular and irregular shapes
Regular shapes have equal-length sides and all the internal angles are equal. Can you cut out the shapes and sort them into the Venn diagram? Then draw a circle around the regular shapes and write a definition of an irregular shape.
Regular and irregular shapes puzzle
Can you help the frog to hop on the stones safely to the other side of the pond? He can only step on regular shapes. Is there more than one route option?

Completing a symmetrical shape
The line down the middle of a symmetrical shape (the same on both sides) is called the line of symmetry. The grid on this worksheet shows a quarter of a shape that has two lines of symmetry. Can you complete the shape? Use a mirror to help if you need to.
Follow instructions to draw shapes
Can you follow these instructions and draw these shapes with right angles, sides and parallel lines?
