Starfish class have been learning about 2D shapes this week through lots of different activities. They have sorted shapes into groups of squares, rectangles, circles and triangles and also used the shapes to create shape pictures. They have made 2D shapes using the pegs and peg boards and made their own shapes using the connect-o-straws, as well as drawn and labelled shapes that they know.
