Math- today we went over vertices, edges, and faces. We completed an activity on counting each of these for various 3D shapes. We were given plastic 3D shapes and dry erase markers and told we could mark them to help us count faces, edges, and vertices. 

We had lots of fun. 

UOI - Today we looked at pictures of old and new inventions. We sorted them based on if they were used in the past or the present. This created some debate as some of us stated chalk boards and chalk are still used in some classrooms!
