SHAPES SHAPES SHAPES

The group was identifying shapes with their teacher, to help reinforce identifying shapes and to celebrate Halloween we read the book __Pumpkin Eye__ by Denise Flemming. As we read the book we looked at the pictures and named the shapes we saw. After reading, I passed out prepackaged shape baggies. Inside the baggies were shapes from clip art that a few students gathered for me (triangles, squares, rectangles, ovals, and crescent moons). The groups worked in teams to create a picture using their shapes. Before the teams could take a picture, they had to name the shapes used, describe their picture and come up with a shape question to ask the other teams. After the teams took the pictures, they uploaded them to [|www.photopeach.com], added the questions and created a shape quiz.

The teachers used the shape quiz for a spiraling activity, filler time, and sub lesson. Later in the year the teachers will have their students post answers in the ‘comment’ section of the photo slide.
