The former two abilities relate to the goal of Shape Up. The Shape Up gameboard consists of a connected network of circles, each containing a large or small version of a geometric shape. There are eight different shapes which are rotated and shaded in different ways. To win the game, students are to place one chip on the small version and the other on the large version of the same shape. What enriches this task is that, in order to win, students are to focus on the attributes of shape and size and disregard rotation and shading. Chip movement is based on the roll of a die. Students choose to move one or both of their chips up or down on either side of the gameboard. Strategic play relies on using fact families effectively to identify better options.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerfect for classrooms, enrichment programs, homeschool families, and Math Pentathlon tournaments, \u003cstrong\u003eShape Up\u003c\/strong\u003e encourages students to think critically, communicate their strategies, and build confidence as mathematical problem solvers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan role=\"text\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkills Developed\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpatial reasoning and visualization\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeometry concepts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber Sense\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrategic thinking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLogical reasoning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePattern recognition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProblem-solving and decision-making\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShape Up transforms the study of geometry into an exciting, hands-on learning experience that inspires students to think creatively, plan strategically, and enjoy the challenge of mathematical games.
