 This is the fifth theme from the series of 30 units for the Preschool-Kindergarten English Language Learners. This is presentation part  of the lesson plan using the resource.  Link: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Shapes-Unit-for-Kindergarten-Holistic-English-Series-5-6027401

Start with the Shapes Unit flashcards to introduce all the shapes to help students recognize and identify the characteristic of any object later on.

Included: circle, square, triangle, rectangle, star,oval, diamond,heart.

 There are big and small shapes flashcards. 

Teacher: This is a circle.

These are the How many shapes? Flashcards to use in your classroom as a decoration or to Ask questions.

Teacher: Two squares. What color are the squares?
Students: blue ! Yellow!
Teacher: Look ! How many squares are there?
Students: one, two! Two!

Teacher: Look ! How many shapes can you see?
Students: five shapes!

             

I added this set of school supplies or classroom objects  items featured in a shape.

Teacher: What is this ?

Students: It's a notebook!

Teacher: What shape is it ?

Students: It's a rectangle!

Teacher: It's a rectangle notebook.

Shapes Unit Small cards. I am adding the same shapes flashcards in 4 in one page cards for printing purpose and for online teaching. Students will experiment with big and small shapes in the cards. Ask questions with can. 

Teacher: Can you see a purple triangle?

Students: YES!

Shapes Unit Cutouts. Use these to introduce or review the shapes. I placed mine onto craft stick and made puppets. It is easy then for distance teaching.

The video of me using the puppets on my laptop.

Remember the crown I made for the first unit, Greetings, well, I used it again on a very windy and almost rainy day. Sorry for the bloppers but you can get the idea using the cutouts anyway. A crown can be used any time with any cutouts. 

Use the shapes cutouts to sort using the children cutouts as a guide.

Shapes Unit Commands Flashcards. Have your students listen, give and carry out this command.

Introduce the command POINT!

Many teachers are in need of shapes flashcards in Spanish!
