Create two‑dimensional shapes using a variety of materials and drawings.
Aligned tasks under K.6F balance fluency and reasoning so students can explain decisions about Create 2D shapes.
The intent of K.6F is to move students from guided examples to independent work with Create 2D shapes.
Start with concrete or familiar examples, connect to prior knowledge, model a clear process, and provide checks for understanding aligned to K.6F.
Standard K.6F describes the essential skills and understandings for Create 2D shapes in Grade K. It clarifies the learning outcomes and what successful work looks like.
It lays groundwork for the next grade by deepening accuracy and flexibility with Create 2D shapes, so students can tackle more complex problems later.
Use short exit tickets and tasks where students explain decisions, show multiple representations, or justify answers—directly aligned to K.6F.
