Overview
This straight-sided member of the shape squad looks a little like its friend, the square. But there are some important differences. Filled with fun and color, this book introduces young learners to the rectangle.
- Kids will discover the attributes of this shape—it has two long sides and two short sides, it has four pointy corners, and it looks a little like a stretched square!
- Readers will see how a rectangle can be made from squares, and they will discover that it’s possible for triangles to hide inside this shape.
- The book introduces the other 2-D members of the squad (square, circle, triangle, and hexagon) and kids will enjoy a first introduction to the group’s chunky 3-D friend—the rectangular prism.
- Using photos, students will get to spot and identify rectangles in the real world.
- And they will learn to use geometry vocabulary including—above, below, beside, in front of, behind, and next to.
Perfectly aligned with the Common Core Standards for Mathematics, this vibrant mix of illustrations, photographs, and engaging text will help Kindergarten and first grade students develop their early geometry skills.
