Heard some interesting conversations among the students as I was facilitating this lesson on the discovery of different shapes they can find in the real world. One student asked a question, "What's is the difference between a square and a rectangle?" He answered his own question as he discovered various different items that were squares and rectangles. He noticed that 2 sides were the same length than the other side.
They also found out that shapes turned different directions/angels.
Students helped each other look for real world shapes, cut and organized shapes into 4 different categories: circle, triangle, square and rectangles.
Below are some image samples one can find in newspaper clippings:
