Our First Graders are 3D Shape Superstars! 🤩 To celebrate the end of their 3D Shapes module, our first grade students created awesome presentations in Canva to show off their knowledge of 3D shapes. They found real-life examples of spheres, cubes, cones, cylinders, and rectangular prisms—and brought them to life in creative, colorful slideshows! We’re so proud of their hard work and the connections they made between math and the world around them! #ourhut #LearningLeading #AimForExcellence #GrowingGreatness #EveryStudentMatters #EveryMomentCounts
