Students need to know how to sort 2d shapes and identify the name of each figure. This anchor chart meant to help your kids understand how we classify shapes into categories based on their attributes, a polygon hierarchy made different! I made a polygon family tree that groups polygons into families and subgroups. This helps kids see the relationships more clearly without using arrows.

This resource is well organized and it visually shows the relationships between the multiple different classifications of the polygons, triangles and quadrilaterals. It is a must have to all kinds of learners.

Shapes included:

• Non-Polygons: Circle, Moon shape, Heart, ...
• Triangles: Equilateral, isosceles, scalene, acute, right, obtuse, Right and isosceles.
• Quadrilaterals: Square, rectangle, rhombus, parallelogram, trapezoid, kite.
• More than 4 sides: Pentagon, hexagon, heptagon, Octagon.

I created two versions of this sheet each colored and black:

• With name and date space: To give to students or use as a reference sheet.
• Without name and date space: To make for a display and lesson or as a poster.
