Tier I, Tier II, and Tier III: Plane Shapes (Two-Dimensional Shapes): Differentiated and Tiered Tasks

Name:  ________________________ Date:  _______________________

Shapes Are All Around Us

Tier I:  Identify plane shapes (two –dimensional shapes) and describe the number of sides and vertices for each shape.

Direction:  Complete the plane shapes chart by finding five plane shapes in your environment (home, school, or community) to identify attributes to complete the chart.  Draw and label each plane shape.  Can you identify the number of sides and vertices for each plane shape?

Plane Shapes Chart

Draw and label five plane shapes.	How many sides does the shape have in all?	How many vertices does the shape have in all?

Conclusion:  What did you learn about the plane shapes?
