Looking for polygons in our classroom


We began our keyboarding program this week

The kids worked in groups to act out the story of Moses and the burning bush

To put together what we have learned in math this week about polygons and pictographs, the kids created a design using different polygons. They then created a pictograph of their design, showing how many of each shape they used.
