Grade Level: KindergartenObjectives: Show students that geometry is everywhere, how to explain

where objects (shapes) are in relation to other shapes, show the

importance that geometry plays in everyday life, and make sure the students are successful in interpreting and recognizing

object size and shape in the classroom, and their environment.

The Geometry and Spatial Sense interactive activity is designed for the student to participate in two lessons, and then prove what they have learned through a quiz at the end. First complete that geometry lesson, and then continue on to the Spatial Sense lesson. Finally, complete the quiz. Parents and teachers are strongly recommended to work with their student on this, to help them read through the lessons. HomeHome
