Students sort a three-dimensional shape collection focusing on the attributes of prism including number of faces, edges, and vertices. Students identify three-dimensional shapes in the world around them. Three-dimensional structures are built from pictures, taken apart, and put together. The attributes of two-dimensional shapes are used to sort a collection of magnetic shapes. Students will explore the position of objects on a grid and use positional words to describe the location of objects. Congruency, symmetry, transformations, and geometric patterns are explored. Writing is an integral part of the lessons.
