We have moved our focus in math from graphs to shapes. Today, we discussed plane shapes and some of the features of plane shapes (flat, 2D). Some plane shapes include the following: circle, square, rectangle, triangle, trapezoid, hexagon, etc. Soon, we will be talking about solid figures (take up space, 3D). We were able to find shapes all over our classroom. Please discuss the shapes inside and outside your home with your first grader. Key focuses during this unit are plane shape and solid figure identification and many ideas centered around spatial awareness. Please let me know if you have any questions about what we're working on in math!

You can make this the homepage on your computer by clicking the link below and making it your home page. The students know their own way around Symbaloo very well!
