The problem

Two circles, two squares, but are they the same?

Same and different are the first comparing words. Children notice size, color or position and may lose track of the shape.

Looking at the wrong thing

A child decides two shapes are different because one is bigger or on the left, not because the shape changed.

Same needs two

Same means they match. Children who see one shape and one empty space are unsure what to compare.

Words are new

Same and different are abstract words. Pointing, matching and saying them out loud turns them into a skill.

Each card shows two shapes and asks if they are the same or different. Children say the words and learn to look at the shape.

What’s inside

Who it’s for

Built for the kitchen table and the classroom.

Parents & homeschool

Put two socks, or two blocks, side by side. Ask: same or different? Then change one thing.

Use at pre-K centers. Slides work as a warm-up and the clip cards fit fine-motor practice.

Early learners

A first step before sorting and patterns.

Questions

Before you buy.

Are the shapes simple?

Yes, circles and squares, to focus on the idea.

Is there a digital version?

Yes. A Google Slides deck shows shape pairs to compare as a group.

How do I get the file?

The download link appears right after checkout and lands in your inbox at the same time. One PDF with 4 pages. No account needed.

Can I print it more than once?

Yes. One teacher or one household can print unlimited copies for their own students, this year and next.

Will it print in color?

The pages are designed to print in black and white, so they print clean on any home or school printer and do not eat a cartridge.

What if it isn’t right for us?

Email support@pencillane.com within 30 days and we refund the full $3. No form, no questions.
