Get children ready for identifying the properties of 2D shapes with this Year 3 Recognise and Describe 2D Shapes Prior Learning activity. This questions on this resource cover the previously taught objectives of angles and parallel and perpendicular lines, which is a great way to recap learning before moving them on.

This resource has six quick questions to complete. Use at the start of your lesson to gauge children's level of knowledge.


Curriculum Objectives

  • Identify horizontal and vertical lines and pairs of perpendicular and parallel lines
  • Recognise that angles are a property of shape or a description of a turn
  • 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
