Additional support and practice
Students work in pairs. Take them to the school
garden, or a park, and ask them to find shapes in
nature and architecture.
Alternatively, if an outdoor activity is not possible,
they look for and collect photographs of things in
nature, e.g. flowers, beehives, snowflakes,
buildings, etc. and find the shapes in them. They
make a poster with the photos, drawing the shapes
they have found over the photo.
