    Kids need structured learning at the elementary school stage to develop foundational skills for middle school math. SplashLearn's online educational games for 5th graders help your child quickly identify attributes of 2D shapes, sort them into categories, and gain essential knowledge of different shapes. 

    What's the Big Deal About Geometry?

    Geometry is a difficult skill for kids to master as they progress through grades into the final years of middle school. The jump is made harder as the analytical skills which kids have been using for elementary algebra don't quite translate to tackling geometry which requires spatial and logical skills. 

    Without proficiency in 2D shapes, kids face struggles in both science and math. Foundational gaps will also make coveted career fields like STEM out of reach for eager aspirants. 

    3 Super Fun Games That Make Learning 2D Shapes a Breeze

    Why Is Geometry So Tough?

    Geometry can be extremely hard for 5th graders accustomed to looking at the world from the analytical lens of algebra. Solving geometry problems like finding the angle of a triangle also requires basic knowledge of algebra and equations.

    Geometry problems also have many moving parts and require multiple steps to decode the eventual result. The many different formulas that need to be memorized can make kids impatient and lose interest in the subject.

    How Can Parents Help

    Aside from regular practice, parents must take out time for one-on-one tutoring. Share examples of correct and incorrect answers to problems on 2D shapes so kids can distinguish between them when solving problems. Ask kids to define concepts, draw shapes and write down examples wherever needed.

    Finally, parents must encourage questions and independent thinking. With time and patience, learning will become more organic and quick.

    SplashLearn's interactive online games teach 2D shapes through visual aids and practice lessons. Structured learning is made fun with musical cues and cartoons, which also make retention a breeze.
