Classifying quadrilaterals across the grades
3rd grade
Classifying quadrilaterals worksheets for third grade draw one shape per problem with three names to circle: rhombus, rectangle, square, or quadrilateral. Picking the most specific name is the point: a square is also a rectangle.
4th grade
Fourth grade adds parallelogram and trapezoid to the name choices. Your child checks whether opposite sides run parallel and whether corners are square, then circles the best name. The same figure can earn several.
5th grade
Fifth grade alternates two problem types: half still show a drawn quadrilateral with three names to circle; the rest are hierarchy statements answered true or false, like "every square is a rectangle."
