3D Shapes

Today the students learned a new poem on the carpet all about 3D Shapes. The students seemed to really enjoy hunting around the classroom for objects that are the shape of cones, cylinders, prisms and cubes. We tried hunting for spheres but problem solved together that we may have more luck finding sphere shaped objects in the gym, where the balls are. Great work today! Finding various objects around your home and/or neighbourhood that are the shape of 3D solids and discussing them with your child would be a great way to help reinforce the idea that shapes and solids can be more than just drawings on a paper. We will continue to talk about various items and their shape.
