DIFFERENTIATING
ShapeGetwities
Just like with any concept, not all
students will learn at the same
pace or in the same way. I have
included 3 levels of 2D and 3D
shapes activities in this unit.
Students in the remediation group
will benefit from a simple review
activity and matching practice.
On-level students may work more
on defining the attributes of the
shapes while the students in the
enrichment group are ready for
drawing shapes activities and
more challenging games. As
always, it is crucial for the teacher
to meet the students where they
are at and progress from there.
Building those foundational skills
before moving on is key.

LESSONS
Like anything, practice makes
perfect! Giving the students
multiple opportunities to work with
these 2D and 3D shapes activities
is essential. Using a variety of
hands-on and mixed review
activities included in this unit
allows the students to practice
these concepts and become
more fluent. They will begin to
define, draw, and recognize the
di!erent shapes and their
attributes with more precision as
they work towards mastery. This
unit makes di!erentiation a
breeze, giving your students the
support they need.
