• CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.G.A.2
  In KindergartenStandards for Mathematical PracticeGeometryIdentify and describe shapes

  Correctly name shapes regardless of their orientations or overall size....

• CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.1.G.A.1
  In Grade 1Standards for Mathematical PracticeGeometryReason with shapes and their attributes

  Distinguish between defining attributes (e.g., triangles are closed and three-sided) versus non-defining attributes (e.g., color, orientation, overall size); build and draw shapes to possess defining attributes....

• CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.2.G.A.1
  In Grade 2Standards for Mathematical PracticeGeometryReason with shapes and their attributes

  Recognize and draw shapes having specified attributes, such as a given number of angles or a given number of equal faces. Identify triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and cubes....

• CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.3.G.A.1
  In Grade 3Standards for Mathematical PracticeMeasurement & DataGeometryReason with shapes and their attributes

  Understand that shapes in different categories (e.g., rhombuses, rectangles, and others) may share attributes (e.g., having four sides), and that the shared attributes can define a larger category (e.g., quadrilaterals). Recognize rhombuses, rectangl...

• CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.G.A.2
  In Grade 4Standards for Mathematical PracticeGeometryDraw and identify lines and angles, and classify shapes by properties of their lines and angles

  Classify two-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines, or the presence or absence of angles of a specified size. Recognize right triangles as a category, and identify right triangles....

• CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.5.G.B.3
  In Grade 5Standards for Mathematical PracticeGeometryClassify two-dimensional figures into categories based on their properties

  Understand that attributes belonging to a category of two-dimensional figures also belong to all subcategories of that category. For example, all rectangles have four right angles and squares are rectangles, so all squares have four right angles....
