2D Geometry – Grade 3 Math Help with 2D Geometry

By Stuart Ackerman

     In grade 3 math, your child will be introduced to 2 dimensional shapes and geometric patterns.

     Your child will learn:

·      about congruent shapes

•  to sort two dimensional shapes
•  to identify 2D shapes
•  use geometric vocabulary to describe the characteristics of 2-D shapes

     Your child should be familiar with the appropriate vocabulary related to grade 3 geometry such as:

·       polygon

·         equilateral, pentagon, hexagon, octagon, square, rectangle, triangle, circle

•    classify
•    congruence

How you can help your child at home:

1. Have your child go on a scavenger hunt around the house looking for different two dimensional shapes.

     The more practice your child has with grade 3 2D geometry at home, the better his or her geometry skills will become.
