In our polygon unit, we are learning about four-sided figures called
QUADRILATERALS!
Many people were confused about why some shapes have more than one name. Here are some tutorials to help you learn about quadrilaterals.

I love your classroom blog! We will be reviewing quadrilaterals soon in the 4th grade. My students love reading the story about the quadrilateral "family." Do you know all the relatives of the quadrilateral?

Dear Mrs. Yollis and class,
ReplyDeleteGreat math movies and tutorials! I love geometry much better than other kinds of math. These movies help everyone learn important differences between the shapes.
Do you start seeing shapes around you now when you are outside?
From,
