The card turned over in the center pile shows which card players are looking to slap. Once a player slaps the matching card, a new center card is turned over and the search begins again. With simple shapes such as heart and circle alongside complex shapes such as scalene triangle and dodecagon (a shape with 12 sides), it is easy to adapt from Pre-K through 6th grade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWith this 2D shapes card game, you get\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA fast-paced Slap-It! game for 2D shape practice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive card formats for 23 shapes: shape pictures, real-life objects, shape names, side counts and written attribute descriptions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSimple and complex shapes, so the game fits Pre-K through 6th grade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy ways to change the game by choosing which cards go in the center pile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrint, cut and let the slapping begin!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShape cards in five formats: geometric shapes, real-life objects, shape names, number of sides and written attribute descriptions (definitions)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e23 shapes in all, from heart, star and circle to scalene triangle and dodecagon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7 triangle cards: 6 specifically labeled triangles and one general triangle for lower levels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 word cards for oval\/ellipse and diamond\/rhombus, so you can use whichever word you wish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSetup and play directions for the Slap-It! game\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlease note:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe definition cards assume the attributes of a regular polygon.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\"Real-life\" pictures are not included for all shapes.
