What a fabulous afternoon we enjoyed learning all about the properties of quadrilaterals.<\/p>\n

In our groups we discussed and discovered lots of similarities and differences in the lengths of sides and angles in each of the shapes we made using a variety of materials. it was so much more interesting doing it like this rather than simply using a ruler and drawing shapes in our jotters. \ud83d\ude0a<\/p>\n

It was also easy to see where we went wrong creating our shapes and to make changes to fix them. Have a look at the shape made of shells that says \u2018square\u2019 below…is there something wrong with it? How could it be fixed?<\/p>\n
