Geometry in First Grade!

First graders started a unit on geometry in math today.  Throughout this unit students will be composing and decomposing 2-D shapes. They will be making shapes from smaller shapes, and filling in shape outlines in multiple ways. Their first activity was doing just that, filling in an outline and making the shapes fit perfectly together. 

Later in the unit students will be describing, sorting, and classifying, as well as distinguishing attributes of shapes.
