We are learning about 3D shapes so today Mrs O brought along some lollies and toothpicks and we had to use these to make 3D shapes.  The lollies were the corners and the toothpicks were the edges.  Sometimes the toothpicks snapped so we had to work with a buddy to create our shapes.

WE LOVED our maths today!!!
