  • Kite
  • Rhombus

How to Make the Most of Your 2D Shapes Poster Set

  1. Print the poster and display it in your classroom for students to reference when doing independent work.
  2. Print the poster on A4 paper, slip it into a clear sleeve, and use it in your guided groups as a reminder.
  3. Print the poster on A4 paper, slide it into a clear sleeve, and hang it on a ring as a reference tool for a learning center. 

We’ve also come up with bonus ways to turn posters into interactive tools that really make your lessons stick!

🖍️ Turn this poster into a coloUring page by printing it in black and white. 

📂 Place copies in students’ homework folders for reference. 

💻 Provide posters as digital resources for virtual students. 

🧠 Test students’ memories by showing them the poster, then hiding it and having them tell you what they remember.

✅ Incorporate posters into your lesson wrap-up: students write on a sticky note what they learned from the lesson and place it on the poster. 

Create a bulletin board display for your 2D unit for students to reference throughout their learnings.
