Wacky Shape Match

Worksheet Description

This worksheet engages students in identifying whether pairs of shapes are congruent or similar. Students will examine pairs of shapes, including various polygons and figures, to determine their relationship based on size and shape. By writing “congruent” or “similar” under each pair, students practice distinguishing these geometric properties in a colorful and interactive way.

The primary math skill explored in this worksheet is the understanding of congruence and similarity in geometry. Congruent shapes are identical in size and shape, while similar shapes have the same shape but may differ in size. This activity helps students enhance their ability to visually compare geometric figures, a foundational skill for more advanced geometric concepts. By completing this worksheet, students will improve their spatial reasoning and their ability to recognize geometric properties in various contexts.
