Venn Diagrams for Sorting Shapes
A Venn diagram is made up of two circles that overlap.
It can be used to sort objects, numbers or shapes.
What is a Venn Diagram?
The blue rectangle fits in both
parts of the diagram so needs to go
in the middle of the diagram.
Sorting 2D Shapes
The blue circle needs to be in
the part for blue shapes
.
The red triangle is
not blue
and
does not
have four sides
so it needs to stay
out of both parts of the diagram
.
The red square needs to be in the
part for four-sided shapes.
blue
has four sides
The blue rectangle does not fit in
this diagram so it stays on the
outside.
Where do these shapes need to move to?
The red triangle needs to be in the
part for three-sided shapes
.
The yellow triangle
needs to be in both parts of the
diagram so goes in the middle.
The yellow circle needs to be
in the part for yellow shapes.

Core Task choices
A Venn diagram, composed of overlapping circles, is a useful tool for sorting objects, numbers, or shapes. This visual aid helps in categorizing shapes based on their attributes like color, sides, and properties. Through a series of interactive examples, learn how to correctly place shapes within a Venn diagram based on specific criteria such as color, sides, and other distinguishing features.
