Shape Monsters
In this lesson we identified six basic shapes: oval, circle, triangle, rectangle, square and diamond. Then we did step by step directions to complete our monsters. Each student was able to pick which one of 6 basic shapes they used for each part of the monster. Students either chose the primary or secondary colors to color in their monster. A cute way for students to remember the primary colors is to sing it to the Farmer in the Dell. Red, blue and yellow, red, blue and yellow. The primary colors are red, blue and yellow. I used same strategy with the secondary colors too. They still are singing it :)
