Encouraging Math Learning At Home - Week 16
Do a shape hunt:
Look for shapes in your home, neighbourhood, playground, etc. (e.g., our house has a
rectangular door; our windows are square). Use terms that will be introduced at school (e.g.,
our house is shaped like a rectangular prism – square or rectangular sides; our roof is shaped
like a triangular prism – triangle shapes at the ends but squares or rectangles on the sides).
