Parents - you, too! Click HERE for the Calm Classroom Audio Resource Guide Activity Central Time to get busy!  Have fun with geometry (the study of shapes) at home! 1) Look around your house for shapes you know (A circle? Square? Cube? Rectangle?) 2) Collect your shapes together in one place. 3) Trace one of your shapes onto a piece of paper. 4) Partition (split up) your shape into 2 equal parts. Older students can label the fraction. 5) Trace another shape and partition it into 4 equal parts. 6) Describe what you did to your family member.  What shapes do you see? How do you know the parts are equal? 7) Ready for a challenge? Trace those same shapes to make a bigger shape or picture! Can you label all the shapes you made?  Check out the Lesson here!
