Circles

 

Last week when the students were exploring and investigating various sized circles and finding circle shapes they were extremely engaged for three days and continued to fill the table with more and more circle items.

 

As a large group we discussed all the things in the world circles could represent and where they could be found. Here are some of their explanations: sun, full moon, wheels on a car, steering wheel of a car, the body of a caterpillar, spots on a cat, spots on any animal, bubbles in the water, and the list went on and on. So at the creation station I placed white paper and lots of big and small circle stickers and wrote on a card: What can you make with circle stickers? The students were extremely creative and some repeated the creations of others.
