Shapes and Sizes: Learning Geometry with the MOTO Family is one book in NCTM’s Math of Tomorrow (MOTO) Response to Intervention series of interactive digital books that are designed to engage students in a dynamic learning experience.

• Chapter 1: Finding Shapes

• Chapter 2: Making Shapes

• Chapter 3: Composing Shapes

Each chapter in Shapes and Sizes is aligned with the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. The content was developed to help students in grades Kindergarten through Grade 2 explore shapes in different orientations and identify characteristics of classes of shapes they find in their own environment. The technological innovation for Shapes and Sizes: Learning Geometry with the MOTO Family far exceeds any digital publication on the market and includes:

• instructional animated video segments featuring the MOTO family -- four engaging characters that portray computational math symbols,

• dozens of interactive learning opportunities,

• digital manipulatives and games,

• a specifically developed writing/drawing tool to allow students to complete interactive tasks and show their progress without leaving the iPad environment,

• Teacher Notes on every page that guide teachers on how to get the most of each page and task,

• technology that allows students to practice key skills, put answers directly on the page, and get instant teacher feedback, and

• the capability for multiple students, each with an individual password, to share the same iPad.
