2-D Shape Patten Placemats
Students identify and form a pattern out of 2-D shapes, then transfer this pattern into creating placemats.
Curated OER
Shapes Are Everywhere
Third graders use various shapes to identify polygons and understand symmetry. They explore pattern blocks noticing their similarities and differences, then share with other team members. They draw 3 polygons in their journals and...
