PRETZEL GEOMETRY

Ask your child about the "Pretzel Geometry" we did today..food is a great way for your child to understand shapes..you can use cheese or bread, give them a butter knife or toothpick and have them create shapes with different numbers of sides and have them give the angels on each corner a name (right, obtuse, or acute angle). You can use pretzel sticks, too, to let them create intersecting, perpendicular, or parallel lines (have them use their SRB to help).
