In Math Workshop, we started exploring and discussing 2-D Shapes.
We discussed different attributes of each shape:
-square
-circle
-triangle
-rectangle
We went on a hunt around our classroom to find objects
that are in the shape of these shapes.
We used post-it notes to record our findings.
The next day, we played a shape game where we
had to create each shape using our bodies.
The kiddos LOVED this game!

Friday, we used pretzels and marshmallows to create our shapes.
The pretzels were the sides and the
marshmallows were the vertices (corners).
Check out our 2-D chart of attributes and real-life examples.
