Shapes In Our World

Three-dimensional (3-D) shapes have three dimensions--length, width, and height. These shapes are solids that are found in buildings and structures as well as in nature. Some 3-D shapes are prisms, cylinders, cones, pyramids, and spheres.

Describes and illustrates shapes of objects and buildings.

The World of Shapes takes children on a voyage around the owrld to exploregeometric shapes. Enjoy the colorful art whole learning about shapes and our world.

Early learners are introduced to all different kinds of shapes with this charming, relatable look at geometry. The simple language used is accessible for beginning readers and helps clearly translate these basic math concepts. Readers are encouraged to identify circles, squares, triangles, and other shapes while they observe their everyday surroundings. Shapes of various sizes are displayed in vibrant full-color photographs, grabbing the attention of young readers and sparking their interest in math and how it can be applied in the world.

Identify three-dimensional shapes all around the world! This vibrant title gives readers practice identifying familiar shapes like cones, cylinders, pentagons, polygons, and prisms, while familiarizing them with STEM themes and more advanced geometry concepts. Children will learn more about vertices, symmetry, and bases. With each shape, this book gives readers information about an example of the shape, be it a building, a honeycomb, or a tree trunk! With an accessible glossary, clear mathematical diagrams, practical examples, and easy-to-read text, readers will have all the tools they need to improve their geometry skills and find shapes on their own!

Shapes are everywhere, and understanding geometric properties is an essential part of math education. A comprehensive introduction to geometry is told through relatable narratives and real-world situations, teaching readers how to recognize geometry in everyday life. Engaging visuals and age-appropriate content work together to reinforce complex math concepts. Polygons are all around us, and readers will learn how to recognize them and their attributes after reading this exciting narrative. This volume meets CCSS Math Standard 2.G.A.1.

Learn more about two-dimensional shapes with this engaging title! This book teaches young readers about various qualities relating to two-dimensional shapes, introducing them to new concepts and vocabulary terms like regular and irregular shapes, right angles, lines of symmetry, and congruency. Practice geometry skills and STEM skills by identifying two-dimensional shapes and their qualities. Clear, colorful diagrams keep readers engaged and encourage children to find shapes all around them!

This is a children's book. This book is for 1st grade inferring basic shapes are the foundation of many things in the world.

“A nuanced portrayal of fire as a force to be respected.”—Publishers Weekly Life as we know it evolved with fire; there is no us without it. With lyrical text grounded in the latest research, this picture book shares the primal connection between all living things and fire. Children will understand that fire has the capability to both destroy and create, and that everything they know in the world has evolved with fire. There is comfort in understanding the natural processes taking place all around. By learning the story of fire and how it has changed this planet, this book also addresses the question: Can people adapt to an increasingly fire-prone environment? This answer is: Yes. Because we always have. With proper care and thoughtful planning, fire can be a benefit to Earth. We can learn from the past to help create our future. Through understanding, we will thrive. FIRE SHAPES THE WORLD is an encouraging springboard for conversation illuminated by breathtaking paintings, and it will allow children to explore their connection to this most elemental agent of change.
