About this resource
An important part of instruction are the assessments that follow! This is especially important for our younger primary students. They are entering school with many different skill sets. It is beneficial for us to find out what they know, so we can properly serve them moving forward. This is why formative assessments are so important. We administer formative assessments at the start of the year, the middle of the school year, and at the end of the school year.
This is a 2-page Shapes Assessment that can be printed or accessed digitally. This is a quick formative assessment for primaries to keep track of whether or not they can, not only identify each shape, but describe them as well. It includes a page for flat shapes and another for solids. There are 6 flat shapes and 4 solid shapes.
You can print a copy of the pages for each student that you have to assess. Allow students to look at a shape one at a time and name the shape. If they name it correctly, you can tick the box. Then allow students to describe the shape. This will include how many sides and angles or if the shape is round. If they can describe it, you can tick that box.
This is a great resource to guide your instruction as well as place in their data folders for future reference.
I hope you enjoy!
