Symmetry and the Legend of the Three Trees

What is symmetry?  We made designs using pattern blocks and had to show at least one line of symmetry.  After, we posted our designs to our blogs here.  Please check them out and write a comment...we would love to read them!
Here is a great video to help you understand symmetry! Please remember to bring in your empty water bottle for our Easter craft on Wednesday:)

We watched the story of the "Legend of the Three Trees' and began to create our Easter 'Eggs' depicting what God's dream was for each of the trees.  Do you know what the author's message is?

Symmetry

Today we started to learn about symmetry but many students already remembered a lot from grade one. We wondered how many lines of symmetry were in a rectangle.  Many students thought there were four lines of symmetry but we discovered there were only two!  Here is a video to remind everyone what symmetry is all about!
