Common Core Standards:

CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.G.A.3: Identify shapes as two-dimensional (lying in a plane, "flat") or three-dimensional ("solid").

Targeted Needs of Student:

Recognizing 2D and 3D shapes around the room, drawing 2D and 3D shapes, comparing and contrasting 2D and 3D shapes

Goal:

To provide students with examples of 2D and 3D shapes

Materials Needed:

1.      Worksheets

2.      Clipboards

3.      Writing utensils

Explanation/Summary:

Students will be given the worksheet and allowed to put the worksheet on a clipboard. They will go around the room and draw at least 2 examples of certain 2D and 3D shapes that they find.  Then they will discuss in a classroom discussion about the similarities and differences of 2D and 3D shapes.
