Learning Observed

As part of developing understandings of shapes and how they occur in our natural environment the learners were asked to identify as many shapes in Ormiston as possible. To begin we identified shapes we knew then went about finding them in our Habitat. Momo was able to identify squares in the capart pattern, rectangles on the ceiling, and a circle in our school logo! Momo has a wide range of knowledge about shapes and is able to share this with others.
