Shapes! Shapes Everywhere

Although this past week was super crazy we had a lot of fun in Maths. We have been looking at the properties and attributes of 2D and 3D shapes. Students loved working with 3D shapes in class and had table competitions using all 16 shapes to build structures. Here are a few pictures. It amazed us that everything around us is made up of shapes.

Math- Flat Shapes

Hello everyone!
The last week was a very short week but as always in Grade 1A we managed to pack a lot of fun learning. We have reviewed shapes and talked about flat shapes/2D shapes.
We were able to organize and talk about sides and corners.

2D and 3D Shapes- Geometry

Hello!
I hope everyone had a wonderful little break. I know I am definitely ready to get back to school and see all the kids. Before the holidays we began our new math unit on shapes. We discussed flat shapes and loved the song about shapes. We know so many many shapes and can see all shapes all around us every day. We continue to study this unit in more depth and integrate Data Management into this unit as we will be using tallies and making graphs!!
I will keep up loading pictures to this post on Shapes as we progress with our unit. Here is picture of some of the shapes we have been learning names of. More pictures to follow.

Most of us can name the shapes and how many sides and
corners they have!
