More Geometry and 2-D Shapes

We created with shapes this week; using cut out representations of shapes the children glued, drew, and combined shapes to create new shapes.


 "Fill the hexagons" is a game wherein the children roll dice and combine different shapes to make a hexagon. There are many colorful ways to make a hexagon!



 We created a "shape mural" with a sky, beach, and water to fill up with shapes. The children created things that they would see at the beach with shapes. There were beach balls made from circles, sand castles made from squares and triangles, and suns and starfish made from hexagons and rhombus.

Until Next Time,
Michele
