Geometry

10
We started our geometry unit last week.

After brainstorming and talking about the different shapes, we went on a classroom hunt for those shapes.

Afterwards, I gave the kids a sheet with a variety of shapes. Their task? To use at least 4 of them and build a picture.



I have a post with a link to a bunch of pattern block math mats. The kids love them.  You can click here to grab them.

    Pattern blocks are the best! My kids love making pictures with them. Check out Have Fun Teaching's Polygon Song on Youtube. My students love to get up and move to this one!
