Hello, little explorer! Today, we are going to learn about some fun shapes that you can see all around you. Are you ready? Let’s go!
I am a square. I have four sides that are all the same length. You can find me in things like windows and boxes. Can you find a square around you?
I am a circle. I go round and round with no start and no end. You can see me in things like wheels and clocks. Let’s spin around like a circle!
I am a triangle. I have three sides and look like a little mountain. You can see me in things like pizza slices and roofs. Can you make a triangle with your fingers?
I am a rectangle. I look like a really long square because I have four sides too, but two are longer. You can find me in doors and books. Can you spot a rectangle nearby?
I am a star. I have five pointy arms and twinkle in the sky at night. You can also see me on top of a Christmas tree. Let’s twinkle like a star!
I am a heart. I am all curved and lovely. You can see me on cards and balloons. Can you make a heart shape with your hands?
I am a diamond. I shine bright like a jewel. You can see me on rings and in patterns. Let’s sparkle like a diamond!
Shapes are all around us, in everything we see and touch. Next time you go outside, try to find as many shapes as you can. Have fun exploring!
Shape Hunt Adventure: Go on a shape hunt around your home or classroom! Look for objects that match the shapes we learned about: squares, circles, triangles, rectangles, stars, hearts, and diamonds. Can you find at least one of each? Draw a picture of the objects you find and share them with your friends. How many different shapes did you discover?
Shape Creation Station: Use playdough or clay to create the shapes we talked about. Try making a square, circle, triangle, rectangle, star, heart, and diamond. Once you have made each shape, arrange them to create a fun picture or pattern. What can you make using these shapes?
Story Time with Shapes: Imagine a story where each shape is a character. What adventures would a square, circle, and triangle go on together? Draw a picture of your story and tell it to your family or friends. How do the shapes help each other in your story?
