Our Shapes Flashcards have a total of 24 double-sided cards, all at the same great value as our number cards.  The world is made up of so many shapes and, as a child, it’s fascinating to discover them. The Shapes Flashcards pack includes 24 double-sided Montessori style 2D and 3D shapes and shapes to trace, all designed specifically to help learn and recognise the number of sides on each shape. A simple dot to dot connection to learn to draw the shape and help understand the number of points and sides to each shape. Learn through playing a number of fun games on the reference card to explore shapes in everyday objects in nature and indoors. The pack also contains a prewriting card, designed to highlight developmental ages to encourage your child to draw and write independently.

The Shapes Flashcards pack is perfect for preschool (aged 2+), Reception (early years, ages 4-5 years) and Year 1 (ages 5-6 years). The shapes included are: circle, triangle, square, rectangle, pentagon, hexagon, heptagon, octagon, sphere, cylinder, pyramid, cone, cube and cuboid.  These are the shapes which are covered in the Maths School syllabus (KS1).  We have also included the following shapes: oval, diamond, parallelogram,  nonagon, decagon, semicircle, crescent, star, trapezium, heart, hemisphere and triangular prism.  These shapes are useful for Year 2 and beyond when edges, vertices and faces come into play.

These hands-on cards are ideal to help preschoolers and early years to learn their 2D and 3D shapes, boost confidence, and develop writing skills.
