Hi,

You would then create a catégorisation activity?
This is not a  bad idea to me.
This would complete this activity idea
http://gcompris.net/wiki/Ideas_for_activities#Categorizing

But then the interesting point would be to put on the top a description.
Eg: We are looking for a figure with 5 segments, 2 right angles and at
least two segments are parallel.
Somehow you could show (maybe with a slides) a first figure showing that
there are 5 segments, a second one showing what a right angle is a third
one what parallel means. Good thing would be to
be able to open these explanation by clicking on the term segements number
right angle parallel.
Then you show different figures, the one not respecting the correct
criterium would have to be slided on the left (in red) and the right one on
the right.

This would be a really nice application to learn and train perseptive
geometrical peoperties.

Regards,

Emmanuel

> 2) Sort it out: In this activity a bunch of shapes would be provided for
