It practises naming circles, squares, triangles and rectangles — 6 questions for Kindergarten, all on Common Core K.G.A.1: Name shapes you see and say where things are — above, below, next to. The instruction to pupils is “Write the name of each shape”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.G.A.1 — K.G.A.1, in the Geometry domain for Kindergarten. The published standard reads: “Describe objects in the environment using names of shapes, and describe the relative positions of these objects.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
Name Flat Shapes is written for Kindergarten, typically ages 5-6. It is one of the sheets on K.G.A.1, so it suits any pupil working at that standard — including older pupils revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
Yes. All 6 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.
25 — one per pupil, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.
