Shapes, shapes, shapes - in Room 5!

This Week in Room 5 we looked at shapes in real life. We looked at a picture of a building, a brick wall, a ramp and a house. We found shapes in all of these real world objects - a triangle and a square in the ramp, square and rectangle bricks in the wall, square and rectangle windows and a semi-circle window in the building, and a square window, triangle roof, and rectangle doors and windows in the house. Then we had a go at making our own house and buildings with plastic shapes. Take a look!

We also looked at the difference between a circle and oval, and a square and rectangle - and where we could find these shapes in the classroom...

Then we cut and pasted some shapes onto a house. Room 5 had a wonderful and busy shape filled morning!
