The Shapes- Les formes géométriques
November
was a very busy and interesting month for our “Petits Français”. During the
month of November, the main focus of the French classes has been “Les formes
géométriques” (The Shapes). This being said, like always, we review what we
have already learned, colours and numbers. To learn about the shapes we did a
few different and interesting activities. We started off with a “Shape Roll and
Hop” where the children rolled the shape dice and hopped to the matching shape.
We also had a day where we did “Shape Stations”, where 3 different activities
were offered (Shape Bean Bag Toss, Button Shapes Sorting, and Geometric Images)
and the children had the opportunity to rotate and try all 3. We also did a “Sensory
Bin Shape Sorting”, where the children dug in the rice to find the shapes they
then sorted. Finally, we played “Shape Bingo”. It was a lot of fun but also very educational.
There was a special emphasis in relating the shapes the children studied to
real life objects. For the Kindergartens, we took things further and started
learning about how to describe the shapes in French (How many sides? What
colour is it?). All in all, the children really enjoyed the month of November and
have learned a lot of new French vocabulary. I am excited for all the fun
things planned for December.
