We reviewed shapes last week. As I was cleaning my house I came upon a heart balloon that we got from grandma for Valentine's day (yes, I still have it although it's been more than a month). That give me an idea! I walked in each room and look at everything and found some items with our basic shapes. Some of the items I found? Here are some examples. From my son's room: a football, a yo-yo, a ruler, an airplane. From my daughter's room: a wand with a star, a necklace with hearts, a doll party hat, a picture frame.
I reviewed shapes with the flashcards and then showed the children the objects I found around the house, i asked to find something in their bedroom that have the shape of a triangle and let me know what is it the next class. Some of them were very excited the following class when they share their findings, some even brought the item to show their friends!
I also got an elastic cord and made shapes with the help of the children, this activity was a lot of fun for all of us.
