Aubrey (2013) states that it is important for children to be able to access their prior knowledge and ongoing cognitive processing in every lesson.…

Mathematical Focus: 2-D Shapes and 3-D Objects In the early years of schooling, children are exposed to 2-D shapes and 3-D objects in their day to day environment (Bobis 128 REFERENCE). It is important that children are aware of the shapes around them in both natural and man-made, to ensure they can engage, understand and apply knowledge of geometry.
