Mr. Flores Teaches Number Sense! .:.Shapes and Triangles.:.

Geometry is usually treated as a "higher" form of math, though it needn't be difficult to understand. Allowing children to play with geometry will make their manipulations and numerical operations more comprehensible and accurate.

Asking students to identify the triangles within geometric figures will help them make sense of formulas for finding area.

textOption = Math.ceil(2*Math.random()); if (options == 3){ document.write(" Name this shape. "); } else { document.write(" Can you name this shape and count its triangles? "); }
