10 resources to aid children in learning about and recognizing squares and embedding the concept. Inspired by the book, “Bears love squares”. Square Identification: Worksheet with various shapes, including squares, circles, triangles, and rectangles. Children colour the squares to identify and differentiate them from other shapes. Then write down how many they find. Square Tracing: Worksheet with dotted square outlines. Children can practice tracing the squares to enhance their fine motor skills and familiarity with the shape. Counting Squares: 2 worksheets, 1 with multiple squares in a column and one with squares and other 2D shapes. Children can colour and count the number of squares in each column and write down the total count. Square Patterns: A worksheet with a series of square patterns (e.g., square-circle-square-circle). Children can continue the patterns by drawing the next shapes in the sequence. Square Sorting: A worksheet with a mix of square and non-square objects. Children can cut out the pictures and sort them into two categories: squares and non-squares. Square Scavenger Hunt: A worksheet where children search for square-shaped objects commonly found in the classroom or at home. Children can then draw or write down what objects they have found. Shape Matching: A worksheet where children cut out the 4 shapes and then match them up correctly to the shape within each square. Square Maze: A worksheet where children follow and colour in the path of squares to help bear find his big square. Eye-Spy Squares: A worksheet with a mix of square and non-square objects. Children colour the pictures that represent a square. I hope your children find these worksheets enjoyable, and please take a moment to provide positive feedback.
