About this worksheet
A free printable shapes and counting worksheet for kindergarten: circles, squares, triangles and stars in mixed sizes and colors fill a picture. Kids count each kind, color a bar graph and write the totals, so they practice shapes, counting to 7 and their first graph at once. Answer key on page 2. Big pictures and only a few tasks per page make it a gentle start for kindergartners.
Tips for using it
- Count the corners with a finger, touching each one, so none are counted twice.
- A square is a special rectangle: four equal sides and four square corners.
- Turn the page around: a shape is the same shape even when it is rotated.
- Say the pattern out loud in a sing-song voice (circle, square, circle, square) before drawing the next shape.
