This is a perfect time saver for you and your classroom. Have smooth transitions between lessons.

Please note: that due to copyright licensing, little prep may be required on your part as I am not able to insert all resources into the teaching slides. I will provide prompts within the slides to ensure you know exactly what resources need to be inserted and on what slides to ensure that the flow of your lesson is fluid and seamless.

What's Included:
  • An entire teaching slide with interactive games and thought provoking lesson content.
  • Worksheets/ Black Line Masters (BLM)/ Printable resources.
  • Additional activities to support teaching and learning content.
  • Links to online interactive games to enhance student engagement.
  • Educational videos and songs attached and linked within the slides.
  • Learning Intentions and Success Criteria for each lesson.
This is just one of many for the entire year!!!
Take the stress out of planning and organising. Walk into your classroom feeling organised and prepared to teach your lesson.

About the slide setup for Multi Age Units:
As this is a multistage unit, often parts of the lessons or resources are relevant to either Early Stage 1 or Stage 1.
To make this discrete, or easier to identify, I have used the following animals to assist.
  • The wombat icon on the slides identifies all Early Stage 1 content and resources. It was chosen as it is an animal that lays low, walks the ground symbolising laying the groundwork or foundations of Maths. Therefore, Early Stage 1 concepts will be identified by the Wombat.
  • The kangaroo icon on the slides identifies all Stage 1 content and resources. It was chosen as it is an animal that jumps to new heights. It still relies on the ground to travel, but leaps and bounds forwards, extending on what they know. Therefore, Stage 1 concepts will be identified by the Kangaroo.

Unit Overview:
This two-week unit develops student knowledge, understanding and skills in the attributes and features of two-dimensional shapes. Students are provided opportunities to:
  • identify and describe two-dimensional (2D) shapes
  • explore how shapes can be made by joining (combining) and breaking apart (partitioning) existing shapes
  • classify shapes based on their attributes as that shape (features of triangles, circles, squares, rectangles, quadrilaterals, hexagons, octagons, polygons)
  • manipulate shapes and objects to halve them in different ways. Sometimes, halves are made up of more than one part
  • describe the position as about halfway, more than halfway or less than halfway
  • create new shapes by adding or removing sides and vertices (corners)
  • explore how 2D shapes can be classified into different categories according to their features
  • turn shapes to fit into a space or create a design
  • create linear patterns with shapes that transform (slide and reflections)
  • make designs which have a line of symmetry.
Lessons:
Lesson 1: Exploring 2D shapes
Lesson 2: Constructing squares
Lesson 3: Making shapes
Lesson 4: Hexagon filler
Lesson 5: What shapes are hiding inside a square?
Lesson 6: Paper halving
Lesson 7: Transform shapes
Lesson 8: Symmetry and design
