I Spy Bird Shapes features birds whose bodies are shaped like a variety of shapes. Children will have fun learning about shapes and finding them on the pages. While both pages feature the same shapes, they do not display the same number of each shape.
The set also includes shape flashcards. There are B/W and color versions of the cards. While many of your children may know all the shapes displayed, others may not. Some may need to have flashcards beside them while they work. They can look at the bigger version on the card and then look for the smaller ones.
You can decide just what your children will need to have available to them as they work through the pages.
