Shapes

Pattern block pictures Ian made

Ian was excited to show me the semi-circle shape he found on our bike trailer.  We looked closer and found more semi-circles, rectangles, triangles, and parallelograms on the trailer.  Ian can also identify pentagons, hexagons, octagons, parallel & intersecting lines, cones, and cylinders.

Ian enjoyed completing "Geometry in a Box Pattern Blocks" activities and making his own shapes with the pattern blocks.  The book Shapes in Transportation has been a favorite this month.
