This week our Kindergarten students discussed the many different types of shapes. We examined the characteristics of each shape and then sorted them by the number of sides, color, and size. As the focus is "All About Me" at the start of our school year, we thought it would be fun to create our own faces using the shapes! The children talked about the different shapes they might use for each part of their face and experimented as they navigated through the project with friends. This topic will help us lead into discussions about creating self portraits that the children will design next week. We learned that shapes are all around us!
