Use a scavenger hunt, art activity, and stickers to help kindergarteners understand shapes and positional language.

How do you build spatial reasoning, critical thinking, and problem solving skills while doing something that is fun? With tangrams! In honor of Chinese New Year, this lesson introduces your students to the Chinese puzzle of tangrams.

Give your students some early practice with shapes using this simple lesson. Young learners will have a great time creating shapes using pieces of string.

It’s magic! In this lesson, students will “magically” move shapes together to form new shapes. Clay and toothpicks equal hands-on fun! Tangram challenges are provided for those students who need that little extra challenge.
