How to play

1. Listen or Read: Click the Listen 🗣️ button to hear the geometric question read aloud, or read the banner at the top.
   

2. Inspect the Visual: Examine the SVG diagram showing how simple shapes are arranged, combined, or split.
   

3. Choose an Answer: Click the option that correctly names the composite shape or its components. Use the small 🔊 icon next to any button to hear that specific option.
   

4. Collect Stars: Score 1 ⭐ for each correct answer and read the explanation box to learn why the shapes fit together.
   

5. Finish the Challenge: Complete 10 randomized shape puzzles to earn a final score out of 10.

Educational Summary
Shape Builder targets early spatial-reasoning standards (such as CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.K.G.B.6 and 1.G.A.2) by prompting students to compose and decompose two-dimensional figures.

By manipulating visual representations of triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, and semi-circles, learners develop mental rotation skills and spatial awareness. The game incorporates immediate corrective explanation loops, randomized sampling from a 20-question bank, and integrated browser text-to-speech to ensure accessibility for emergent readers.

Teachers’ Guide
Grade Level & Target Audience
Designed for Pre-K through 2nd Grade classrooms, Shape Builder targets foundational geometry standards by guiding young learners through composing and decomposing two-dimensional figures. The tool reinforces core spatial reasoning skills, helping students visualize how basic shapes combine to form composite structures.

Classroom Integration Strategies
For whole-group instruction, project the game onto an interactive whiteboard to serve as a daily math warm-up or entry ticket. Prompt students to participate in a “turn-and-talk” with a peer to discuss and predict the combined shape before selecting an answer. During independent math rotations or guided math centers, students can run through self-paced 10-question sessions on tablets or computers to consolidate learning.

Accessibility & Differentiation
Built-in audio tools ensure all learners can participate independently. Emergent readers and English Language Learners can click the text-to-speech icons to hear question prompts and individual options read aloud. Visual scaffolding is embedded directly into the diagrams through distinct color-coding and dashed construction lines, helping students delineate individual geometric components within complex shapes.

Hands-On Tactile Extension
Bridge digital practice with concrete learning by pairing the game with physical pattern blocks or tangrams. Before locking in an answer on screen, challenge students to manipulate physical shapes on their desks to build the visual problem. This hands-on approach reinforces spatial awareness and bridges tactile experimentation with abstract reasoning.
