Become a shape detective with our EYFS Exploring 2D Shapes Learning Activity! Children will hunt for 2D shapes before recording their findings on our worksheet. This worksheet encourages children to name and describe 2D shapes using vocabulary such as edges and corners.

It covers the following objectives for children in reception:

(M-29) Select, rotate and manipulate shapes in order to develop spatial reasoning skills.


Curriculum Objectives

  • There is no Early Learning Goal for shape, space and measures, but it is important that the curriculum includes rich opportunities for children to develop their spatial reasoning skills across all areas of mathematics
