Pattern Blocks
Have fun making your own shapes and tessellating patterns or see if you can complete the pattern puzzles.
Pattern Shapes
Try making patterns, tessellations or pictures with shapes. Explore geometry and fractions or investigate symmetry. Great for demonstrating protractors and measuring angles in shapes.
Shape Escape
Do you know the names of 2-D shapes and their properties? See if you know how many sides and vertices they have and if you can recognise correct lines of symmetry.
Shadow Shapes
Match shadows to their shapes.
Key Stage 3 Bitesize - Maths
Help is at hand for maths revision for Key Stage 3 Maths SATs. The site has resources for teachers too.
Shape Puzzles
Complete the puzzles by matching the shapes and reveal each animal.
Venn Diagram Shape Sorter
A good teacher demonstration tool for Venn diagrams especially when used on an interactive whiteboard.
Shape Puzzle
A jigsaw puzzle with a difference. You need to fill in the missing shapes to complete the picture.
Co-ordinates - Reasoning about Position and Shape
An interactive site where you find the missing coordinates on a given shape, reflected in a mirror line, or the midpoints of straight lines. You can choose to find coordinates in the first quadrant, or all four quadrants.
Finding the Area of Compound Shapes
A good site on finding the area of a shape based on rectangles on a grid. Estimate first and then compare with the actual area of the shape. Good as an IWB demo tool for teaching how to apply the formula to compound shapes based on rectangles.
