Dear Parents,

Your children have been learning about 3-D shapes.  We are doing great with cubes and cones but 
cylinders and spheres are tricky.  We made up a little chant to help. "Cylinder is a soda can and sphere is 
a ball."  I also encourage parents to reinforce this skill at home with the many examples of both shapes 
around the house.

Cylinder- soda can, soup can, paper towel roll, many trash cans, toilet paper roll, etc
Sphere - baseball, soccer ball, orange, many cereal pieces, etc.

As you see these shapes, point them out to your child or ask him/her what shape it is.  They'll have 
these down in no time as well.  Thanks!
