 Learning Detective Skills

We took imprints of our teeth on foam cups.

We then shared each others imprints to look at the similarities and differences.

It was fascinating looking at the different patterns our teeth made.

We are working hard on sharing our ideas and opinions and listening to others.

We did lots of different symmetry activities. 

We had to draw half a symmetrical flower using shapes and then swap with a buddy.
We then had to draw the other half of their flower, it was very tricky!

More symmetrical flowers.

You really had to think about how to draw half a symmetrical flower!

Some of us got to complete a spider so it was symmetrical.
This was hard!
