We explored 2D and 3D shapes and learned that 2D shapes are flat and 3D shapes are solid. We are learning the shape names and language to describe them, such as ‘sides’, ‘corners’, ‘straight’, ‘flat’ and ‘round’. We combined some 2D shapes to make pictures that resembled houses, rockets and tractors and we enjoyed our shape cut-and-stick activity. We also investigated 3D shapes by sorting real-life objects into those that resembled spheres or cubes. We also selected the appropriate 3D shapes to build a house for our teddy; choosing those with flat faces for building the walls and triangular prisms for the roof.
