Shapes and Figures

We have been learning about 2D shapes and 3D figures.

• We can name and describe 2D shapes and 3D figures.
• We can sort and compare 2D shapes and 3D figures.
• We can see 2D shapes as part of 3D figures.
• We can build structures and make pictures using 2D shapes and 3D figures.

A favourite part of their learning included listening to the song 3D Shapes I Know. Clicking on this link to enjoy this fun learning song with your child.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYaQoBilyls

How many flat and fat shapes can your child find at home?

Take a peak inside the classroom to see how the children have investigated, explored and deepened their understanding of the geometry strand in mathematics.

Creating things with 2D shapes. 

 

         Exploring with the geo-board. 

Four squares and a pentagon!

2D shapes with toothpicks and marshmallows 

Building with solids and curved edges.

Fun exploring with stacking.

Fat or Flat?

Do these solids roll or slide?
