Hidden Figures: Shapes Inside Shapes
Today's big idea
Find the shape tucked inside
Trace it over each picture.
How it works
👀 What's going on?
A house drawing hides a triangle in its roof and squares in its windows. Once you start looking, shapes appear tucked inside bigger pictures everywhere.
💡 Here's the trick
Look at the small shape above, then at the pictures. A picture hides that shape if you can trace the shape somewhere inside it. Your job is to find which picture has it.
- 1.Fix the small shape in your mind (triangle, square or circle).
- 2.Look at each picture and trace its parts.
- 3.Pick the picture where you can find the small shape hiding inside.
✍️ Try it
Which hides a triangle — a house, a ball, or a window? The house, because its roof is a triangle. A ball is a circle and a window is made of squares.
⚠️ Watch out
Look at the parts, not just the whole. A house is not a triangle, but a triangle hides inside it as the roof. Trace the shape to be sure.
