Designing with Geometry!

I was so glad all of you enjoyed reading If You Look Around You by Fulvio Testa. To refresh your memory, the book was about geometric shapes in scenes of children in- and out-of-doors.  After we read the book we headed outside and I hope all of you had fun on our nature walk! I also hope you were able to find many shapes in the neighbourhood just like in the story. All of you are really great at identifying and describing various two-dimensional shapes! You can test your knowledge with this fun guessing game.

This weekend for homework I would like you to create a picture by combining several two-dimentional shapes just like we did in class today. Have a look at the picture below, how many shapes can you find?

If you think you know your shapes really well then why not try out this fun activity where you are given a picture and you must fill in the correct shapes to make the picture complete!

Happy hunting!
