Shapes and Pattern Blocks

sharing our work

This week we got creative with shapes...can we make shapes? Can we make shapes into something else? How about creating a pattern picture with 28 shapes with a partner, then counting up how many of each shape we used? Can we construct a hexagon with the different shapes that we have learned about? To all of these questions, the kindergartners found the answer was YES and shared their results with their classmates.
