This resource is from Tools4NCTeachers. This file contains sample anchor charts to create with students. Anchor charts are to be made with students, then displayed as a classroom reference. Parents may also benefit from seeing anchor charts, as they provide a snapshot into the math class.Remix this resource to include pictures of your own anchor charts.

This resource is from Tools4NCTeachers. This file contains a set of 3 tasks (including scoring rubric and recording sheets).  The tasks may be used for instruction or assessment.The focus of standard G.1 is on recognizing/drawing 2D shapes and recognizing/describing 3D shapes.  Please remix this resource to help create additional tasks - especially for 3D shapes!
