Roll and Cover Shapes Worksheet for Preschoolers

How to use this worksheet

Roll the die together and look at which shape or symbol landed face up, naming it aloud before searching the worksheet. Have your child scan the page to find a matching shape, then cover it with a marker, crayon, or small counter. Take turns rolling and covering shapes until most or all of the shapes on the page are covered, keeping track together of which shapes have already been claimed.
