To solve this shape sorting task, we need to count how many of each shape are in the pile at the bottom and then place that number into the correct column in the grid above.
Step 1: Identify the Categories
Look at the top row of the big grid. There are four columns, each with a specific shape header:
1.
Hexagon (6-sided shape)
2.
Circle
3.
Triangle (3-sided shape)
4.
Square (4-sided equal sides)
Step 2: Count the Shapes
Let's look at the shapes at the bottom of the page and count them one by one.
*
Hexagons:
* There is one in the first row (4th from left).
* There is one in the second row (1st from left).
* There is one in the second row (last on the right).
*
Total Hexagons = 3
*
Circles:
* There is one in the first row (2nd from left).
* There is one in the first row (5th from left).
* There is one in the second row (3rd from left).
*
Total Circles = 3
*
Triangles:
* There is one in the first row (last on the right).
* There is one in the second row (2nd from left).
* There is one in the second row (4th from left).
*
Total Triangles = 3
*
Squares:
* There is one in the first row (1st from left).
* There is one in the first row (3rd from left).
* There is one in the second row (5th from left).
*
Total Squares = 3
Step 3: Fill in the Grid
Now we match our counts to the columns in the grid. Since there are 3 of each shape, you would write the number
3 in the box under each shape category.
Final Answer:
Hexagons: 3
Circles: 3
Triangles: 3
Squares: 3
