Library Day

 Math: Composing Simple Shapes

At the beginning of this lesson we will help the kids become confident in knowing a shape is a shape no matter its size or orientation. I will hold up two cards that are the same shape but not the same size/orientation and ask the kids if they agree that they are the same shape. 

 After we have gone through the shape cards, I will hand out one card per student and call up a shape name and those students will come to the front with their card. We will verify that it is the correct shape and call up the next group of students.

Next, I will read the story, The Shape of Things by Dayle Dodds and as I read the text, we will stop and discuss the flat shapes they see making up the larger picture. Finally, Tangrams will be given to the kids to create a picture using the flat shapes.
