National Curriculum Objectives

Mathematics Year 2: (2G1a) Compare and sort common 2-D and 3-D shapes and everyday objects

Mathematics Year 2: (2G2a) Identify and describe the properties of 2-D shapes, including the number of sides and line symmetry in a vertical line

Mathematics Year 3: (3G3a) Draw 2-D shapes

Mathematics Year 3: (3G4a) Recognise angles as a property of shape or a description of a turn

Mathematics Year 3: (3G4b) Identify right angles, recognise that two right angles make a half-turn, three make three quarters of a turn and four a complete turn; identify whether angles are greater than or less than a right angle

Mathematics Year 3: (3G2) Identify horizontal and vertical lines and pairs of perpendicular and parallel lines

Differentiation for Year 2 Sort 2D Shapes:

Varied Fluency
Developing Questions to support sorting common 2D shapes (triangles, rectangles, squares and circles in various orientations) by the number of sides and vertices and their colours.
Expected Questions to support sorting regular 2D shapes (triangles, rectangles, squares, pentagons, hexagons, ovals, diamonds and circles in various orientations) by the number of sides and vertices and their colours.
Greater Depth Questions to support sorting regular and irregular 2D shapes (triangles, rectangles, squares, pentagons, hexagons, ovals, diamonds and circles in various orientations) by the number of sides and vertices and their colours.

Reasoning and Problem Solving
Questions 1, 4 and 7 (Problem Solving)
Developing Tick the hidden shape out of 3 ordered shapes. Shapes are ordered based on the number of sides or vertices. Common 2D shapes used.
Expected Identify the hidden shape out of 4 ordered shapes. Shapes are ordered based on the number of sides or vertices. Regular 2D shapes with up to 6 sides used.
Greater Depth Identify the hidden shape out of 4 ordered shapes. Shapes are ordered based on the number of sides or vertices. Regular and irregular 2D shapes with up to 6 sides used.

Questions 2, 5 and 8 (Reasoning)
Developing Explain which section of a Carroll diagram a specific shape could fit into. Sections based on the number of sides or vertices or colours. Common 2D shapes used.
Expected Explain which sections of a Carroll diagram a named shape could fit into. Sections based on the number of sides or vertices or colours. Regular 2D shapes with up to 6 sides used.
Greater Depth Explain which sections of a Carroll diagram a named shape could fit into. Sections based on the number of sides or vertices or colours. Regular and irregular 2D shapes with up to 6 sides used.

Questions 3, 6 and 9 (Reasoning)
Developing Identify the missing label in a Venn diagram with 5 shapes placed. Shapes in all sections. Shapes sorted based on the number of sides or vertices or colour. Common 2D shapes used.
Expected Identify the missing label in a Venn diagram with 4 shapes placed. Shapes sorted based on the number of sides or vertices or colour. Regular 2D shapes with up to 6 sides used.
Greater Depth Identify the missing label in a Venn diagram with 4 shapes placed. Shapes sorted based on the number of sides or vertices or colour. Regular and irregular 2D shapes with up to 6 sides used.

Differentiation for Year 3 Recognise and Describe 2D Shapes:

Varied Fluency
Developing Questions to support recognising common 2D shapes and basic polygons and describing 2D shapes using the number and length of sides and lines of symmetry.
Expected Questions to support recognising common 2D shapes, quadrilaterals and regular polygons using the number and length of sides, lines of symmetry and types of angles.
Greater Depth Questions to support recognising common 2D shapes, regular and irregular polygons and quadrilaterals using number and length of sides, lines of symmetry, types of angles and types of lines.

Reasoning and Problem Solving
Questions 1, 4 and 7 (Problem Solving)
Developing Draw a shape which could represent each letter in the Venn diagram. 3 shapes to draw. 2 separate sorting circles.
Expected Draw a shape which could represent each letter in the Venn diagram. 4 shapes to draw. 2 overlapping sorting circles.
Greater Depth Draw a shape which could represent each letter in the Venn diagram. 6 shapes to draw. 3 overlapping sorting circles.

Questions 2, 5 and 8 (Reasoning)
Developing Explain and prove whether the statement is always, sometimes or never true. Statements use the language of symmetry and sides.
Expected Explain and prove whether the statement is always, sometimes or never true. Statements use the language of angles.
Greater Depth Explain and prove whether the statements are always, sometimes or never true. Statements refer to types of lines.

Questions 3, 6 and 9 (Reasoning)
Developing Explain how the shapes are the same. Shapes lead children to use the language of sides, symmetry, triangles, squares and rectangles.
Expected Explain how the shapes are the same. Shapes lead children to use the language of angles.
Greater Depth Explain how the shapes are the same. Shapes lead children to use the language of line types.
