Mathematics in Room 4

At the moment we are learning about shape.
Today we used money to help us understand how many sides a shape has. 
Every child was given $11, each side costs $1, therefore a square costs $4. The students needed to make something ensuring that they used all of their money! A circle was free...obviously :) 
The students needed to ensure they were counting the sides of each shape and taking that money away from their $11. We then wrote number stories explaining how much our new 'shape' costs. 
Below are some pictures:
