Algebra ad Geometry play
Lesson Outline
I decided to vary from the lesson in the book today, so that Hunter could be more engaged. We first played an Algebra game, where we looked at a card with 4 numbers on it and had to make the number 24 by performing different operations on the numbers. It was more difficult than we expected!
I found the box of Magnetix toys. They contain magnetic balls and stick pieces that allow you to make a variety of shapes. I let Hunter explore and make whatever he wanted for a bit. I talked to him about right angles, acute, and obtuse. He knows what they are, and could make them with the pieces. We tried to make polyhedrons, which are space figures with the same shape on all of the faces. We tried to make one out of pentagons, but failed. We did succeed at making one out of pyramids.
