- Circle the middle pizza (the one divided into 8 equal triangular slices).
- In the first shape (a square divided into 4 smaller squares), color one of the small squares.
- In the second shape (a circle divided into 4 equal wedges by two crossing lines), color one of the wedges.
- In the third shape (a rectangle divided into 4 equal vertical strips), color one of the strips.
- For the bottom row, draw one vertical line in the first rectangle to divide it into 2 equal parts, then draw one horizontal line across the middle to divide it into 4 equal smaller rectangles.
- For the hexagon, draw three lines from opposite vertices through the center to divide it into 6 equal triangles; then group adjacent triangles into pairs to form 3 larger shapes, but since the task is to divide into fourths, instead draw two lines: one horizontal through the center and one vertical through the center, creating 4 trapezoidal regions (or if exact fourths are needed, draw lines connecting midpoints of opposite sides to create 4 congruent quadrilaterals).
- For the diamond (rhombus), draw one horizontal line and one vertical line through the center, intersecting at the center point, dividing it into 4 equal triangular regions.
