These are material that are very familiar to the children, can teach them that shapes are usually represented in certain colors. Hits many of the math proccesses.
They are making connections, estimating, problem soloving, reasoning and visualizing.

One of my classes really enjoyed and another not so much. The second class took a little longer to enjoy it. this came after being able to name the shapes.
