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?

Tier II:  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.  Make a collage of the plane shapes that you find in your environment by drawing and labeling the plane shapes on a sheet of construction paper.   Can you identify the number of sides and vertices for each shape?

Tier III:  Identify plane shapes (two-dimensional shapes).

Direction:  Can you identify the plane shapes (two-dimensional shapes) in your environment (home, school, or community)?   Write the names of five plane shapes in your environment on the lines in the plane shapes chart.   Draw each plane shape that you identify in the plane shapes chart.
