"Ricky Rectangle"
Ricky Rectangle is my name.
My four sides are not the same.
2 are short and 2 are long
Count my sides, come right along
1, 2, 3, 4
Turned this way, I look like a door
Vertically 1, 2, 3, 4
Turned this way, I'm a window in a store
1, 2, 3, 4
 
"Tommy Triangle"
Tommy Triangle is the name for me
Tap my sides, 1, 2, 3!

My 4 sides are just the same
Count one side and then count more
Count 2, then 3, then 4
Turn me around, I don't care
I'm Sandy Square
 
"Suzy Circle"
I'm Suzy Circle
Watch me bend
Round and round
From end to end

It sounds funny but it can be done

 

3 + 5, 3 + 5 is____, 1 + 6, 1 + 6 is____,

3 - 2, 3 - 2 is____, 5 + 4, 5 + 4 is____,
