Shape of You: Parallel Sides
geometry · identifying parallel sides in quadrilaterals
To count the parallel sides in quadrilaterals [4.G.A.2].
Shape of You: Parallel Sides is a Grade 4 geometry game for identifying pairs of parallel sides in quadrilaterals. Students draw a shape card, count how many pairs of opposite sides are parallel, and show the actual pairs when one or more exist. Scoring rewards both the correct count and accurate identification of the lines.
Use it for partner or small-group review when students are classifying quadrilaterals by attributes. Asking students to point to the parallel sides before scoring keeps the reasoning tied to the figure rather than a memorized shape name.
