 KinderMath: Taking a Closer Look at Square and Rectangle

Today we will focus on rectangles and squares in the story, Circus Shapes by Stuart Murphy. We will look closely at rectangles and squares to focus on the fact that a square has four equal sides and a rectangle has 2 long and 2 short sides. Next, the kids look closely at the faces of the solid shapes and notice the circle base of the cylinder, cone, and square base of a cube. They will have time to explore finding the flat shapes within the solid shapes. Lastly, the kids will lay their solid shapes flat and then trace around them. Once they lift up the solid shape, they will discover a flat shape. 

MLK Activity: This activity will show the kids that even though we look different on the outside, all of us look the same on the inside. 

~Your child will be given a shirt that says 'TEAM KELLI' on it to wear at school today. I will keep them at school for future use.
