We used ‘number of sides’ to classify squares, rectangles, circles, semi circles, pentagons and hexagons. We then introduced the spheros to ‘drive’ around the 2D shapes fixed to the carpet. Well done Nursery! Next week we will begin to explore some 3D shapes and objects. ### Using spheros to learn 2D shape [
