Hey there! Today, we’re going to have fun learning about different shapes. Are you ready to explore all the cool shapes we can find? Let’s go!
First, let’s talk about plane shapes. These are flat shapes that you can draw on paper.
A circle is round, just like a lemon slice or a clock. It doesn’t have any corners or sides.
An oval looks a bit like a circle, but it’s stretched out. Think of a rugby ball or an egg. They are oval-shaped!
A triangle has three sides and three corners. Imagine a slice of pizza or a piece of cheese. Yum!
A square has four sides that are all the same length. It looks like a piece of sandwich bread or a cookie.
A rectangle also has four sides, but only the opposite sides are the same length. It looks like a picture frame or a dollar bill.
A diamond has four sides that are the same length, but its corners are different. It looks like a kite or a jewel on a crown.
A pentagon has five sides. It looks like a birdhouse or the stitches on a football.
A hexagon has six sides. It looks like a stop sign or a beehive. Watch out for the bees!
Great job! Now you know all about plane shapes: circle, oval, triangle, square, rectangle, diamond, pentagon, and hexagon.
Now, let’s learn about geometric shapes. These are 3D shapes that you can hold in your hand.
A sphere is round like a ball. Think of a tennis ball or a bowling ball.
A cube has six square sides. Dice and some boxes are cubes.
A cylinder has two flat circular ends. It looks like a can or a candle.
A prism has two identical faces. A milk carton is a prism with square faces. Some prisms have triangle faces, like a skating rink.
A pyramid has a base that is a polygon and sides that are triangles. They all meet at a point on top, like the pyramids in Egypt or a teepee.
A cone has a circular base and a pointy top. It looks like a birthday hat or an ice cream cone.
Awesome! Now you know all about geometric shapes: sphere, cube, cylinder, prism, pyramid, and cone.
Keep exploring and see if you can find these shapes around you. Have fun learning!
Shape Hunt: Go on a shape hunt around your home or classroom. Look for objects that match the plane and geometric shapes you’ve learned about. Can you find a circle, square, or triangle? How about a sphere or a cube? Draw or take pictures of the objects you find and share them with your friends or family.
Shape Art: Create a piece of art using different shapes. You can use colored paper, scissors, and glue to cut out and arrange shapes like circles, squares, and triangles to make a picture. Maybe you can create a house using a rectangle and a triangle, or a rocket using a cone and a cylinder. Let your imagination run wild!
Shape Story: Write a short story or draw a comic strip featuring characters that are different shapes. What adventures do a circle, a square, and a triangle go on together? How do they use their unique shapes to solve problems or help each other? Share your story with your classmates or family.
Sure! Here’s a sanitized version of the YouTube transcript:

[Music] Today we’re going to learn about geometric plane shapes. Do you know how many types there are? Here we go!
Do you know what this is? It’s a circle! A circle is round, like this lemon half or this clock.
What about this shape? It looks very much like a circle, but it’s not. This is an oval. It has a flat face and looks like this rugby ball or this egg.
Oops! This is not an oval anymore; this is a triangle. It’s a polygon with three sides and three angles. The triangle is like this piece of cheese or a slice of pizza. Yum, it looks delicious!
This is a square. [Music] This square looks like sandwich bread or this cookie. No more food talk; I’m feeling really hungry!
This is a rectangle. It has four sides like the square, but they’re not identical. Only its opposite sides are equal in length. A rectangle looks like this bill or this picture frame.
This is a diamond shape. Its four sides are identical, but its angles are not, meaning this one and this one are equal, and so are these two. A diamond looks like the jewel on this crown or like this kite.
This one right here is a pentagon. Pentagons have five sides: one, two, three, four, and five. A pentagon looks like this birdhouse or these football stitches.
Finally, I’ll show you the hexagon. Hexagons have six sides. A hexagon is like this stop sign or this beehive. We better go now; the bees are getting angry!
Recap: circle, oval, triangle, square, rectangle, diamond, pentagon, hexagon. Now you know everything about plane shapes. Well done! [Music] [Applause]
Today we’re going to learn about geometric shapes. Do you know how many types there are? Here they come!
Take a guess: what is this? Yes, it’s a sphere! Spheres look like this tennis ball or this bowling ball.
And this is a cube. Cubes have four identical square sides. [Music] Dice are cubes, and this box is also a cube.
This shape is a cylinder. Cylinders have two identical flat circular bases. A cylinder is like this can or this candle.
This is a prism. Both faces of the prism are identical. There are many types of prisms. This milk carton is a prism, as you can see both of its faces are identical squares.
But in this prism, its bases are triangles. It looks like a skating rink—wow, so fast!
This one is super easy; I’m sure you’ve seen it before. It’s a pyramid! Its base is a polygon, and its sides are triangles. All sides meet at a central point, the apex, just like the pyramids in ancient Egypt or this Indian-style teepee.
Finally, I’ll show you a cone. As you can see, the cone has a circular base and a vertex. The cone looks like this birthday hat [Music] or like this ice cream cone.
Oops! Well done! Let’s recap all geometric shapes: sphere, cube, cylinder, prism, pyramid, cone. Now you know everything about geometric shapes. Way to go! [Applause] [Music]
