Learning goals
- We are learning to sort, name, make and describe familiar shapes using obvious features.
- We are learning to sort, describe and name 2D shapes and 3D objects based on common features.
- We are learning to make, compare and classify shapes and objects using obvious features.
- We are learning to describe the features of two-dimensional shapes and three-dimensional objects.
