Shape Week In Primary 4/3

This week we have been focussing a large part of our learning on 2D and 3D shape.

We have enjoyed playing guess the shape game, where we used our knowledge on properties of 2D shape to give clues to our friends to help them guess the name correctly.

We have been outside in the glorious sunshine collecting a range of natural materials to make shape pictures and then build a fact file to display our learning about shape properties.

We were set  STEM challenge to build a 3D shape using only cocktail sticks and gummy sweets. Here are some of our finished models.

Finally, we we learning about the different nets that make up a 3D shape. We chose which shape we would like to make and got to working cutting and sticking to create our final 3D models. This helped us think about the different shapes of faces making up a 2D shape.

We hope you enjoyed reading the highlights of our shape focus week.
