Title – Geometric Shapes

By – Deborah Kasper

Subject – Math, Computers

Grade Level – 1-2

This is for a computer class. Using the Kid Pix software, I made a
template of 4-6
geometric shapes, painted them in, each a different color. I typed the name
of each shape on the page (octagon, trapezoid etc.). Using the moving van
tool, I broke each shape in 2 pieces and scattered them on the page. The
students had
to match the shapes together and bring them beside the corresponding
word. The next class, I had the students draw the shapes using the
straight line tool on Kid Pix and paint it in. They had to then make a
puzzle, similar to how I had done previously for them, by breaking the
shapes in 2 pieces and scattering them around the page. Next the
students switched computers and completed the puzzle another student made.
