We just got finished with our Geometry unit on the relationships between a quadrilateral, parallelogram, square, and rectangle. My students always struggle with knowing that a square can be a rectangle, but a rectangle can't always be a square. On their unit test, they have to look at a shape and classify it by ALL of the options that it can be. I found a fun family tree on pinterest, but wanted to "jazz" it up a bit. So, I have designed this family tree to help them define the geometry term and draw a picture below their definition. My kiddos LOVED this form and said it was VERY helpful! I hope you enjoy it. Just click on the picture to download your own copy!
Love it - thank you!

I just taught classifying quadrilaterals today...I will definitely use this tomorrow as a follow-up activity, as I had several strugglers! Can't wait to pass this out to the kiddos! Thanks so much!
