Shapes, Friends and Fun!

Whales began an exploration of 2-D shapes this week. We talked about the qualities of 2-D shapes, how we can draw them, memorize their names, and find them in our environment. We spent our mornings playing shape games, creating shapes on our pegboards and making new shapes out of existing shapes with our pattern blocks.

On Friday we celebrated with a 2-D Shape Bingo Walk around campus. We found circles, ovals, triangles, rhombus’ pentagons, hexagons, octagons, trapezoids and more. Once we started looking, we began to notice shapes EVERYWHERE!
