Polygons
Learners work together to create mobiles with different polygons. They research the polygon and list its characteristics. They may present to the class if they chose to.
Curated OER
Team Puzzles
Fourth graders work in co-operative teams of four to complete a puzzle. Each student initially works independently, and then the team jointly puts together the four shapes they have individually made, to complete the puzzle.
