We continued working on learning about the difference between 2D and 3D shapes during out math study this week.  The children have also been brushing up on their 2D shape recognition as well as working on recognizing the 3D shapes: sphere, cube, cone, pyramid, rectangular prism, triangular prism, and cylinder.  We’ve been singing a shape name game song during group time each day to help us remember all of these new shapes.  CLICK on the first picture below to link to the video we’ve been using.  It’s a FUN way to continue the practice at home.

We began talking about the difference between 2D and 3D shapes in math group today.  Seven 3D shapes were introduced along with reviewing six 2D shapes.  Then, we had the opportunity to sort them on our smartboard game.  Click the first picture below to follow the link to the game we played.  It’s a great game for the computer at home!

We continued our study of 3D objects with an interactive smartboard game.  Click on the photo below to play the game with your child!  This site has many fun math games that correlate to what we are learning in the classroom.

We have also been singing a 3D shapes song during group time to help us remember the names of the 3D shapes.  The video is below to practice at home!

Happy Playing!
