LA + Math

 We integrated a combination of math and language arts into a really fun activity!
While getting to know more about our shapes and using pattern blocks, students had a task to build a castle that would be fit for a king...or a beast. In our first CKLA Knowledge strand, one of our fairy tale stories was Beauty and the Beast. After using the appropriate amount of pattern blocks, students then drew their castle and also organized their pattern blocks to see how many of each they used.
Their description of their castles were all very unique and creative!
