Lesson 2- Build and Draw shapes - Lesson for Grade 1, Chapter - 2D and 3D Shapes

In Lesson 2, titled "Build and Draw Shapes," first grade students will embark on an exciting journey through the world of 2D and 3D shapes, as part of their Geometry unit. This lesson is designed to enhance students' understanding and skills in identifying, drawing, and distinguishing between various geometric shapes. Through engaging activities such as the "Easy Drawing of Ovals and Rectangles Worksheet," "Trace and Draw a Circle and a Square Worksheet," and "Trace and Draw More Shapes Worksheet," students will gain hands-on experience in tracing and drawing fundamental shapes.

Learning to accurately draw and recognize shapes is crucial for young learners as it lays the foundation for understanding more complex geometric concepts in the future. This knowledge plays a significant role in developing spatial awareness, an essential skill in everyday life and in subjects such as math, science, and art. By mastering the ability to identify and draw basic shapes, students will not only enhance their mathematical reasoning but also improve their fine motor skills, preparing them for more advanced topics in geometry and beyond.

  • Activity 1 / Easy Drawing of Ovals And Rectangles Worksheet

    Free geometry worksheets are available at Kids Academy. Make learning more interesting and fun. 
    An oval is not as round as a circle. Its form reminds the form of an egg. Start at the firefly, trace an oval, pass to drawing one. Look at the picture. Does your oval remind it? Try to remember the shape.
    Now let's learn to draw a rectangle looking just like a TV! Trace the shape first. Start at the firefly. A rectangle has four sides, but it isn't square, because two sides are short and two sides are long.
    Remember the shapes with printable shapes worksheets for children.

  • Activity 2 / Trace And Draw a Circle And a Square Worksheet

    With our new collection of free shape worksheets for preschoolers your children will learn quicker. 
    First they trace the circle, then pass to drawing it on their own. Starting at the firefly will make it even easier. Kids learn to recognize the shape and now they know that the circle is round. A colorful picture helps them remember the material better, for example, the ball is round too.
    In the second part of this worksheet children learn to draw a square. It has four equal parts and looks like a chess board.
