Fun with shapes

Today in the garden we had great fun identifying and creating shapes to celebrate Maths Week Scotland.

The children collected various loose parts such as blocks, large and small planks, tyres and crates and used them to explore the properties of different 2D shapes.

We then worked brilliantly as a team putting our knowledge into practice as we made our very own large shapes!

“Our square has 4 corners! “

”A triangle has 3 sides!”

Can you be shape detectives and find any 2D shapes around your house?
