Our Toddler friends are exploring their current unit of inquiry, Shapes, Shapes All Around Me. This math based unit focuses on investigating geometric shapes and their attributes such as color, shape and size. The students will also use these shapes to learn other mathematical skills such as patterns, non-standard measurement and comparisons. We are so excited for our Toddler friends as they learn all about shapes!
