Looking for simple, effective shapes practice for second grade? The Drawing Shapes According to the Rules Worksheet is a ready-to-print math resource that students can complete on their own after a short introduction.

Learning objective: Students will practice shapes and apply the skill independently by completing each task on the page.

How it's organized: The page opens with these directions: "Read every rule. Draw a shape that follows the rule. Then find its name in the word bank and write it on the line." Students then complete the practice items in order and check their work before turning it in.

Grade level: Designed for second grade students. It also works well for first grade and third grade students who need extra practice or a fresh review.

How to use it: It works well for whole-class lessons, small groups, early finishers, homework, review days, intervention time, and sub tubs.
