Support your class in developing their mathematical discussions by downloading and using our Year 4 Shape Stem Sentences resource. We've compiled a range of sentences that will help your children to answer questions and take part in discussions to improve their understanding of properties of shape and build their confidence in reasoning and problem-solving skills.

This pack is ideal for printing off and being displayed around your classroom throughout your shape topic. Alternatively, you can use them on your working wall by picking and choosing which sentences you want children to focus on and use in each lesson. These stem sentences are great for identifying gaps in learning, to recap previous learning or use them at the start of your lesson to get children warmed up and ready to tackle the main activity. We've used an easy-to-read font to make this accessible for all learners.
