What is Geometry?
Geometry is all about shapes and spaces!
It helps us understand the world around us - from the round wheels on your bike to the rectangular screen you're looking at right now. Let's explore some fun geometry concepts together!
Basic Shapes Adventure
1️⃣ Find shapes around your house (circle, square, triangle, rectangle)
2️⃣ Count the sides of each shape you find
3️⃣ Compare sizes - which shape is bigger? Smaller?

Parent Tips 🌟
- Shape scavenger hunt: Turn a walk around the neighborhood into a geometry lesson by searching for different shapes in buildings, signs, and nature.
- Play with food: Use crackers (square), cookies (circle), and sliced cheese (triangle) to create shape pictures at snack time.
- Building blocks: Encourage your child to describe the shapes they're using as they build with blocks or LEGO bricks.
