Flexible Thinking with 3D Shapes!

We are learning about flexible and rigid thinking.  We made silly putty to show how we can quickly change our thinking into something else if we get stuck.

To be flexible we used our silly putty in a different way.  We had a lot of fun with our silly putty making 3D shapes.  We made rectangular prism, sphere, triangle, square based pyramid, cube, cone,cylinder, triangular prism.  We also made a semi-circle.

CONE!

CYLINDER OR A RECTANGULAR PRISM (depending on how you look at it!)
