This set of 2D Shapes: Attributes Worksheets includes 13 targeted pages to help your students explore the properties of 2D shapes in an engaging and consistent way. These worksheets provide valuable opportunities for students to count sides and corners, identify and name shapes, trace and draw them, and recognise how they appear in the real world.

You can use these worksheets individually as you introduce each 2D shape or compile them into a booklet for students to work through during your geometry unit. The variety of task types makes it ideal for whole-class learning, rotations, or independent practise.
