Flip Booklets Shapes Dwayne Douglas Kohn

Children can easily create "flip booklets" that will allow them to identify all kinds of shapes, including 3-D solids! Each mini-booklet is on a single piece of paper for ease of use! The children color in the delightful pictures, cut them out and place them together to create a booklet in which the pictured item in the sentence is "flipped" up to create a new sentence each time. For example, for the "Triangle" book the students read "The pizza is a triangle." They flip up the picture of the slice of pizza to reveal a picture of a slice of pie. They then read "The pie is a triangle." This continues with Hanger, Sail and Saw to give them five everyday objects that are the same shape. There are booklets for the following shapes: circle, square, triangle, rectangle, oval, rhombus, spiral, cube, sphere, cone, cylinder, rectangular prism and dome. Four additional flip books are also included which feature a review of the major shapes and a comparison between flat and solid shapes. Pages are printed blank on back so that they may be used directly from the book, or photocopy the pages and save the book for re-use over and over. Designed for use in the home or in the classroom.
