What is Shapes and Space?

Shapes and Space is the first chapter in the CBSE Class 1 Maths textbook. It introduces young learners to the world of basic shapes and the idea of where objects are placed in space. 

Shapes and Space is the study of identifying, comparing, and understanding different shapes around us and learning the position of objects in our surroundings (like above–below, inside–outside, near–far).

This chapter helps children to connect Maths with daily life. By observing doors, windows, balls, or books, they realize how shapes are everywhere. The space part makes them think logically about placement, like a birds flying above a tree or a toy kept inside a cupboard.
