About Shape Dance

The goal of this game is for children to explore shape names and attributes by finding, and standing on, the shape that is being described


What's the math in this game?

Knowing about a shape is more than just knowing the shape’s name. This game helps children pay attention to the attributes, or characteristics, that define a shape mathematically. Children may be at different levels with their knowledge of shapes. You can adjust the shapes you use and the clues you give to make it more or less challenging.
