2D Shape Butterflies

My 2D Shape Butterfly Puzzles make for a great maths group/ centre. Their are four real life images that fit inside the wings of each butterfly. 

There are 14 2D shapes included in this resource. They are:

• Triangle
• Oval
• Circle
• Square
• Rectangle
• Diamond- Rhombus
• Star
• Semi circle
• Pentagon
• Hexagon
• Crescent
• Heart
• Trapezium
• Octogon

The unique part about this resource is that it comes with a set of blank cards for your students to uillustrate their own 2D shape real life pictures. This can be used for assessment as well as a way to bulk up the playing cards for this game and give your students ownership. Get your students drawing for a maths rotation one day and the next, use their illustrations as part of the puzzle game! 

It is a low prep activity and the playing cards can be used in so many ways. 

Some ideas include:

• Tickets out the door to do a quick check in- assessment. 
• To make pairs or small groups where students have to find the person/ people that have the same shape as them to form a group with for an activity. 
• A fun warm up with music where when the music stops you find a card and say the shape, some properties of the shape such as sides and think of another everyday item that is the same 2D shape.
