Grade 1 . . . now available in 3D!

No need for 3-D glasses here! We are into our Geometry Unit in Math and have been having fun identifying, describing, comparing and sorting 3-D solids. 

3-D solids are FAT, not flat. We have been examining the sphere, cone, cylinder and cube, and this song has been helpful (although stuck on our heads all the time!):

We were inspired to hunt for 3-D solids ourselves, so with camera in hand, we set off to explore Holy Redeemer. Children worked in teams to identify objects in our environment that are shaped like spheres, cylinders, cubes and cones. 

Here is what we found:


Super searching, boys and girls!

The 3-D solids "posters" used in the slide show are from Mrs. Ricca's Kindergarten Solid Shapes Powerpoint.
