How to train the Comparing shapes skill in Grade 2 students learning about Geometry?

To train Grade 2 students in comparing shapes, use hands-on activities like sorting shape cards, playing matching games, or constructing shapes with manipulatives. Incorporate visual aids and real-life examples, encourage discussions about similarities and differences between shapes, and provide worksheets that challenge them to identify, compare, and categorize shapes based on attributes such as sides, angles, and symmetry.
