We have been talking about triangles this month in the toddler room, and learning about the 3 sides a triangle has. When learning about shapes, it is always fun to see if they can find every day objects that are made of triangles, like the roof of a house! Below you can see we even used triangles to help make our “‘D’ is for ‘Dinosaur'” alphabet page!

Triangles on triangles!

Matching triangles with different patterns and colors

Our toddlers have had a lot of practice with triangles so far this month. Because we know how important repetition is in order for our toddlers to learn, we incorporated triangles into most of our daily activities! Below you can see how we implement the triangle into different parts of our day.

At our art center our friends practiced sticking tissue paper triangles onto contact paper on our easel. 

In one of our small groups we practiced using a glue stick to paste triangles on a bigger triangle and made a triangle mosaic. We also used triangle sponges to paint triangles onto our triangle paper. In the other small group, we made triangles, using popsicle sticks, and practiced counting the 3 sides.

Our toddler friends practiced using a glue stick again in their art project with Ms. Kristen! They made owls using the triangle, too!

We even used snack time to practice making triangles with pretzel rods!
