Description
As we worked on our games (and puzzles) to teach basic shapes, we thought it would be more fun to have the shapes look like something recognizable. (Instead of a white circle with a black outline, for example.) That’s how we started drawing “Shape Animals”, and we couldn’t stop. We ended up with over 50 unique drawings!
These illustrations were merely meant for usage in other products. And you will surely see them reappear there a lot. But we thought some people might like to just have the illustrations themselves on easy-to-use cards, without anything else attached. So we provided this PDF for free!
It allows you to come up with your own activity or use them however you want. We also ended up using this idea of “animals that look suspiciously like a shape” in our stories on this topic, The Shapesquare Stories. So using these cards while reading those stories might be a good idea to start off with.
Have fun!

Subject: Mathematics
The curriculum is split into six main subjects that align with your typical school subjects.
This resource is part of the Mathematics subject. Below is a summary:
This subject teaches Mathematics from first principles to calculus. Level 1 explores the basic skills needed before you do any counting or see any numbers (such as grouping and comparing objects). Level 2(+) can then introduce numbers, counting, addition, multiplication, and more.
Faction: Teachers
This resource is part of the Teachers Faction.
But that's just one way to teach and explore its topic(s)!
You can always move to a different Faction to find a more effective way to teach the same topic.
Played a quiz? Try a game! Played a game? Try an escape room! And so on.
For example,
Charm: Activity Aid
This product is part of the Activity Aid charm.

Spell: My First Shapes
This resource is part of the My First Shapes topic (or "spell").
Just like colors, shapes provide an easy way to categorize the world around us and break it into smaller parts. This helps understand the world better: now you can explicitly ask your parents for the square thing, for example. It also enables teaching crucial skills such as grouping and combining later.
