Rhymes and Songs:

Make a Shape
Author Unknown

Make a circle, make a circle,
Draw it in the sky.
Use your finger, use your finger,
Make it round as a pie.

Draw a square, draw a square,
Make the lines so straight.
Make a square, make a square,
Draw a box in the air.

Draw a triangle, draw a triangle,
Always start at the top.
Make a tent, make a tent,
Use three lines and stop!

The Shape of Things
Author Unknown

What is a circle? What is round?
A quarter rolling on the ground,
A wheel is a circle, so is the moon,
A bottle cap, or a big balloon.

What is a square, with sides the same?
The wooden board for a checker game,
A slice of cheese, a TV screen,
A table napkin to keep you clean.

What is a rectangle, straight and tall?
The door that stands within your wall.
A dollar bill, a loaf of bread,
The mattress lying on your bed.

What is a triangle, with sides of three?
A piece of pie for you and me,
A musical triangle, ding, ding, ding,
A slice of pizza with everything!

These are the shapes seen everywhere:
A triangle, rectangle, circle, square.
If you look closely where you’ve been,
You’ll surely see the shapes you’re in!
