Let's solve this
"Identifying Shapes" worksheet step by step for each character. We need to count how many of each shape —
square,
triangle,
rectangle, and
circle — are present in each figure.

✔ Explanation: This exercise helps students recognize basic 2D shapes and practice counting. The key is to look carefully at all parts of each character and classify them correctly. Some features like eyes or limbs may be simplified into circles or rectangles even if they're slightly stylized.
