This is....Jeopardy!

Today, the girls reviewed 2D and 3D shapes in a fun way...by playing Jeopardy! The girls played as a team against the computer and had to earn $3000 in order to get a treat at the end of the day.  Category titles were: 2D Shapes, 2D Real-Life Examples, 3D Shapes, 3D Real-Life Examples, and Miscellaneous.  They worked together and pulled out a big "W"!  They are prepared for tomorrow's big culmination activity!

 
The girls also began making the first animal for their rain forest tree--the morpho butterfly.  They learned where the butterfly lives in the rain forest and watched an amazing video of its colorful wings.  They painted coffee filters brilliant colors and tomorrow, when they are dry, will glue them onto their trees!
