Math Centers

We continue to learn about the similarities and differences of many 2-dimensionals shapes. We have used the geoboards and other manipulative to learn about vertices, sides and angles. The children are learning that a pentagon can be any shape with 5 sides and that there are many different quadrilaterals. Also, we have been solving word problems that are based on shapes.

For example:
 Jay drew two 2 dimensional shapes that had 8 angles in all. Show three different solutions to this problem.
