Our class started a mathematics unit on shape and space. Geometric shapes are all around us, and mathematics can help your child recognize them. Understanding geometric form will help them appreciate the geometry found in art, design, architecture, and nature.

In this short unit, your child will:

• Identify and name various shapes with 3 or more sides
• Build, represent, and describe geometric objects
• Draw and talk about 2-D shapes and 3-D objects
