Shapes Identification Mat

Learn Shapes with Musky!

There are many types of shapes, but some of the most common are circles, squares, triangles, rectangles, and hexagons. Our class teacher taught us about different types of shapes. The first question our teacher asked is – What is the shape of a pizza slice? Some said round and some said triangle. The teacher told us that pizza is round but the pizza slice is triangular in shape.

We learned about different types of shapes and real-life products that are of different shapes. I came back home and played with the Musky bot with my parents to learn more about shapes.

I am sure you learned a lot with your cute little learning buddy, Musky. Check if you can answer these questions.

Q1. Name the objects that are round in shape.

Q2. How many corners does a square have?

Q3. Are squares and rectangles the same? State one similarity and one difference.

This activity generates a basic understanding of shapes and increases their general awareness.The mat can be used to teach kids different ages by organizing group activities. Kids can be divided Into different teams and they can be asked to form different shapes in the form of a human chain and other teams will have to guess the shape.
