This week we have been doing lots of geometry! Yesterday we learned how to classify quadrilaterals, we have learned about polygons, rays, line segments, lines, and angles. We have even learned how to classify triangles by looking at their angles. This week we are working with symmetry and pattern problem solving. We will have a test on Friday to finish up our geometry unit. I am including some fun links for symmetry games. Symmetry is ALL around us! Have your student practice by looking for symmetry in the world around us. Look at words, signs, and art. Look for symmetry while you are shopping or driving. You'll be suprised at how often you can find it!
