Les mathématiques à la maison: April 7th to 11th

Shape Scavenger Hunt

Last week in math, we looked at what we already knew about 2D figures. Our foundation in this strand seems to be quite solid, as most students have no difficulty identifying various 2D shapes. We used the Geoboards to create triangles, squares and rectangles in different designs to try and "hide" them. We then found a partner who's job was to "seek" out the shapes! Today we brought our math journals out to the back field and looked for shapes in our playground, we found many! With nicer weather upon us, go for a walk around your neighbourhood and do a Shape Scavenger Hunt:

- who can find the most squares?
- can you spot a triangle?
- where can you find an octogan?
