Math with Someone

To introduce our new activity during Math with Someone we started by doing a "Look and Talk" with a picture in our math big book. The picture showed a little boy who took shapes to create different pictures. The new activity is doing just that. The pair of students who are partners take a bag of shapes, a paper, pencil and clip board to a spot in the room. They create various pictures using the shapes and draw what they created. They can stack the shapes to create pictures or lay them down next to each other.
