Currently our numeracy and mathematics focus is 2D shapes and 3D objects.
The children have been exploring this concept in lots of different ways in the nursery.
See if you can spot different shapes and objects at home and out and about. At lunch time we noticed that some of our sandwiches are rectangles and some are triangles.
I was posting shapes into the shape monsters!
We noticed that our outdoor number logs are circles.
We noticed that balls, or spheres, roll.
We can use different shaped objects to build. Shapes with round edges are harder to build with.
We decorated circle plates.
We used small cubes to build a mountain range and a pyramid. We love being creative in our maths learning!
