Shape Manipulatives
When setting up a shape activity, the first thing I do is go into my supply closet and pull out all my shape games, manipulatives, and puzzles. Pattern blocks, shape cookies, and shape magnet blocks are distributed into various classroom centers. Students need to be playing, manipulating and creating with shapes all over the classroom, not just in the math center!
I love this 2D & 3D shape building set! It’s a ton of fun and comes with shape cards.
Toothpick Shapes
Toothpick Shapes are a fun and interactive way to learn shapes! Students can make shapes with toothpicks and play dough or marshmallows. When teaching your little learners about shapes, it’s important to teach about the sides and vertices too. Use those big vocabulary words! Feel, touch and count the number of sides and vertices a shape has. Don’t forget that a circle doesn’t have any sides or vertices!
In the Discovery Center: Learning about math and science
In the discovery center, I set up a shapes exploration table. The wall has shape posters with real photographs, the back of the table is lined with shape building cards and manipulatives and translucent shapes. There is a sorting board with shape flashcards on top. It’s just a poster board I made with tape. Super simple! The basket is filled with real objects and shape cards students can sort. This exploration table gives students the opportunity to talk about, touch, feel, build, and manipulate shapes with a peer or independently.
Shape Building Blocks Cards! This is a close up of the building block shape cards. Students use the blocks to create the shape on the card. After the shape theme is over, put the shape building cards in with your manipulatives or STEM drawers!
Geoboard shape cards! I put these shape geoboard cards in my geoboard basket. Students can make the shapes with loom bands on the geoboard. To introduce this activity, I put it out for table time as an arrival activity. It’s also great to build those little fine motor muscles too!
Shape cover up! Cover up is a fun game to practice matching shape! Students spin the spinner and cover the matching shape. I love these translucent spinners for my math games. This game is in my Shapes pack. It comes in four different levels.
Shapes graph it! This is another fun shapes game that my students love. It’s also a great opportunity to talk about more, less and equal to. Try using magnet bingo chips to cover the graph then using a magnet wand at the end to make the game even more exciting.
In the Sensory Table
This shape sensory table is filled with shaped manipulatives and a few cupcake pans for sorting. It has foam shape beads, shape chains and translucent shapes. Perfect for sorting, lacing, and linking together. And you guessed it, it’s great for their fine motor, too!
Transition Activity
Shape sort! Transition activities are the perfect time to do a quick assessment or learning check. We have snack after music and movement time. I always plan a transition activity for that time for several reasons. The first is so the whole class isn’t lined up at the same time to wash their hands, which is just asking for crazy behaviors to occur. The second is because it’s another time I can squeeze in more learning! What I do is call on a student and give them a card to sort. It’s a quick and easy way for me to check and see if they know or don’t know a shape.
In the Library Center
Sand writing trays with shape flashcards! Students can write and draw shapes in the sand. This tray is from a lacing set but you can use any small tray you have. I know some teachers use foil pie plates or kid plastic divided dinner plates for writing trays.
Shape mini books! After we make a shape mini books together during small group or table time, I put them in the center. They LOVE making them! Staplers scare me a bit with my little learners so I put in this stapleless stapler! It’s amazing!
Shapes emergent reader! For a small group activity, students create their own shape emergent reader. After they are complete and we have read them a few times together, they are put in the library center for students to read.
In the Art Center
My students LOVE play dough trays so I try to make one for each theme we do. In this activity, they create play dough shape monsters. Students use the shape cookie cutters to create the body. Then add arms, legs, eyes and hair using cut up pipe cleaners, small popsicle sticks, toothpicks, and googly eyes. The tray is from the Dollar Tree.
Play dough shape mats! Students can create play dough shapes on these shape mats. They can make the shape by rolling play dough snakes or by molding the dough.
Shape Prints! It’s great fine motor and makes beautiful pieces of art for your classroom. We cut up paper towel tubes for this circle printing project.
We printed with wooden shape blocks too!
Shape collages! It’s important to provide activities for students to create new items using shapes. In fact, it’s a learning objective/standard in many states. Students need to be able to manipulate shapes to create new shapes, objects or pictures. Shape collages are the perfect activity to address this learning objective.
Single shape collages! You can also have students create shape collages using just one kind of shape. One year my students were struggling with triangles so we created triangle shape collages. Students were finding triangle shapes, talking about triangles (how they are alike and different), and making pictures with triangles!
Dramatic Play
You can change the dramatic play center to so many different things for a shape theme but my favorite thing to do is a Pizza Restaurant. There are shapes all over a pizza restaurant. The pizzas can be different shapes and the slices too! Then the toppings are so many different shapes too. You should totally try it!
Make learning about shapes FUN by providing your students with hands-on learning experiences and play! Want all the 2D Shape printables in this post? Click HERE to grab my 2D Shapes unit from my TPT store. It’s packed with over 200 pages of shape building cards (legos, geoboards, popsicle sticks, toothpicks, play dough), posters, sorting mats, worksheets, games & MORE.

Variable forms of preschool education

VARIATIVE FORMS OF PRESCHOOL EDUCATION
Annotation: Along with state preschool educational institutions, there are various forms of preschool education called variable. As a rule, they exist on the basis of the preschool educational institution as its structural divisions. However, they may exist as an alternative. Thus, the main principle of the educational policy of Russia in the field of preschool education is that all children have the right to equal starting conditions before starting school.
The main principle of Russia's educational policy in the field of preschool education is that all children have the right to equal starting conditions before starting school.
The system of kindergartens is designed both for the initial socialization of children, teaching them communication skills with peers, and for a mass, public solution to the problem of their parents' employment (for which the kindergarten's working hours in most cases coincide with the typical work schedule of most professions: from 7 up to 19hours five days a week). The kindergarten system also provides a minimum preparation of children for schooling - at the level of primary reading, writing and numeracy.
The following types of preschool educational institutions are traditionally typical for the Russian Federation:
1. Kindergarten of a general developmental type with a priority direction, for example: physical, intellectual, artistic and aesthetic education.
2. Child development center - kindergarten.
3. Kindergarten of a combined type - along with the usual groups, there are groups for children with some form of developmental disabilities. As a rule, these are speech therapy groups (speech correction).
4. Kindergarten of compensatory type - specialized and sanatorium. In such kindergartens, some chronic diseases are corrected. In specialized kindergartens, unlike sanatoriums, children with chronic diseases can go to the same groups as healthy children.
In public preschools, depending on the type of kindergarten, the curriculum, the number of children in the group, the quality of food and toys, and even, to a large extent, the psychological atmosphere will vary.
One of the main tasks of the development of preschool education is to strengthen the institution of the family, in connection with which a whole system of public preschool education has been created, focused on a child brought up in a family environment. So, along with state preschool educational institutions, there are various forms of preschool education, called variable. As a rule, they exist on the basis of the preschool educational institution as its structural divisions. However, they may exist as an alternative.
The first category includes:
1. Advisory centers
2. Early intervention services
3. Child play support centers in preschools
4. Lekothekas
5. Family kindergartens
(60023) stay (7.) Bilingual groupIn the second category we can distinguish:
1. Private kindergartens
2. Home kindergartens
3. Leisure centers
4. Schools
(5.) Bilingual kindergartens
Let's take a quick look at what we have conventionally called the "first category".
Advisory centers ensure the unity and continuity of family and social education, provide psychological and pedagogical support to parents, promote the comprehensive development of the personality of children who do not attend preschool educational institutions.
Early intervention services provide medico-social and psychological-pedagogical assistance to infants and young children with identified developmental disabilities (at risk of impairment) and their families in crisis situations, and also determine the educational route of a problem child.
Children's play support centers carry out pedagogical activities aimed at the comprehensive development of a child aged 6 months to 3 years.
Lekothekas are open to children from 2 months to 7 years old who do not attend state educational institutions for health reasons or due to developmental problems and who need psychological, pedagogical and medical and social assistance.
Family kindergartens are created by large families with three or more children aged 2 months to 7 years, with one of the parents acting as a teacher for children.
Short-stay groups are focused on visiting preschool children 3 times a week for 3 hours. As a rule, groups are of different ages and solve two main tasks: adapting children to kindergarten and preparing them for a longer stay there in the future.
Bilingual groups means that in the kindergarten group the pedagogical process is conducted in several languages.
An alternative to state preschools is a number of educational institutions that are either in the full sense of the word preschools, but exist on a private basis, or preschool education is only one of the components of their educational activities, the list of services they provide is much wider.
Private kindergartens - a duly registered preschool educational institution that operates in accordance with the Russian Federation Law "On Education", has a state license and premises that meet the requirements for a preschool educational institution (as a rule, its own or rented separately standing
low-rise building with an adjacent enclosed area). In the city, private kindergartens, as a rule, occupy the premises of former state or departmental kindergartens, and outside the city they are small cottages built in accordance with the requirements of the law and the characteristics of children's residence.
Home kindergartens are, to some extent, a kind of private kindergarten, differing in that they are organized in large (three- or four-room) apartments, where some of the rooms are reserved for children. Theoretically, it is impossible to obtain a license for educational activities for a kindergarten organized in an apartment. However, according to the Regulation on Licensing Educational Activities, developmental activities (classes in circles, sections, studios), educational activities, leisure activities, seminars, trainings, lectures, consultations, etc., are not subject to licensing, that is, any activity that is not accompanied by final certification and issuance of documents on education and (or) qualifications. In this case, the owner of the home kindergarten registers as an individual entrepreneur (IP), buys a cash register, keeps accounts and calls the Soviet children's institution a development center.
Leisure centers - as a rule, they are municipal and represent to some extent an analogue of the same development center that we talked about in relation to home kindergarten, with some exceptions, however: the list of additional education services they provide is much wider, t . e. pre-school education may be only a small part of it.
Schools - many schools are now taking on the function of preparing children aged 6-7 for admission to grade 1 by organizing appropriate preparatory courses. It is worth touching on the topic of creating educational clusters. It is assumed that the merger of capital schools with kindergartens will allow: firstly, to solve the problem of continuity between preschool educational institutions and schools; secondly, to expand the number of development profiles offered by schools to future students.
Bilingual kindergartens differ from ordinary kindergartens only in that educational activities are carried out in several languages (there may be several different age groups, respectively, in this case, the kindergarten may offer the possibility of choosing a language).
In conclusion, it should be noted that the "first category" of institutions is characterized by the fact that educational services are provided free of charge, while the "second category"
implies payment. In general, with the transition of our education system to self-sufficiency, it is possible to predict the expansion of the list of paid educational services provided by state preschool educational institutions.

ABSTRACT
The article deals with interactive forms of interaction between a preschool educational organization and a family in the upbringing of preschool children.
ANNOTATION
The article deals with interactive forms of interaction between a preschool educational organization and a family in the upbringing of preschool children.
Key words: interactive forms, cooperation, education. Key words: interactive forms, cooperation, education.
At present, cooperation with the parents of students occupies a valuable place in many priority areas
of the educational process in preschools. Most teachers are well aware of the primacy of family education and the need for psychological and pedagogical assistance to parents.
The family is a unique primary society that gives the child a sense of psychological security and emotional "support". The family not only lives with the child, but is also a source of social experience. It is in the family that the child finds role models, this is the beginning of social birth.
Currently, unfortunately, there is a fact of some "deviation" of parents from the upbringing and education of children, parents are becoming more in the position of "executors of material duties", creators of material benefits for their children. And only in the process of close interaction, which is created by kindergarten teachers, parents begin to understand that the main responsibility for the upbringing of children lies with the parents, and teachers are called upon to support and supplement their educational activities.
Cooperation between teachers and parents requires equality of partners, respect for the parties that interact with each other, taking into account their individual capabilities and abilities. The most important way to implement cooperation between teachers and parents is their interaction, when parents are not passive observers, but active participants in the educational process, so we can conclude that a single field of activity should be formed between parents and teachers - cooperation in resolving issues related to education, training and development of children.
A modern preschool organization uses various interactive forms of interaction with parents, allowing them to participate in the educational process of their child.
The word "interactive" came to us from the English language, from the word "interact", where "Inter" is mutual and "Act" is to act. "Interactive" means to interact or be in the mode of conversation, dialogue with something [1, p.27].
Main goals of interactive communication:
1. exchange of experience;
2. skills development;
3. creating conditions for dialogue;
4. group cohesion;
5. change in the psychological atmosphere [4, p. 510].
The variety of interactive forms of interaction with parents allows teachers to significantly improve relationships with families, improve the pedagogical culture of parents and expand children's understanding of various areas of education.
Domestic pedagogical science has accumulated considerable experience in the interaction between the kindergarten and the family. K. D. Ushinsky, N. K. Krupskaya, A. S. Makarenko, V. A. Sukhomlinsky, P. F. Lesgaft made a great contribution to the context of modern teacher education; relevant are their scientific generalizations and conclusions that the family is the beginning of all undertakings, that the family is the first educational institution that laid the foundation for a fully developed personality. Researchers believe that if we want to bring up a morally healthy generation, we must solve this problem "with the whole world": kindergarten, family, society [3, p.416c]. Modern researchers also emphasize the importance of interaction between teachers and parents in the upbringing and development of preschoolers.
In their works, researchers offer various forms and methods of fruitful cooperation between the kindergarten and the family: the so-called. Dronova, T. A. Markova, E. P. Arnautova - reveal the need for self-development of teachers and parents. Markova N. F. Vinogradov G. N., Godin L. V., Zugich - pay attention to the content of work with the family. Scientists put forward the basic principles in the content of work with the family:
1. unity in the work of preschool organizations and the family in the upbringing of children;
2. mutual trust in relations between teachers and parents;
3. use of various forms of kindergarten with the family in their relationship;
4. forms of individual and group work with parents [2, p.81].
The authors lay the foundations for organizing the interaction of preschool educational institutions on the principles of continuity of joint activities, feedback, as well as the individual approach of each family.
Today, the problem of interaction between teachers and parents in the educational process can be successfully solved through integrated approaches in planning a joint
activities, the choice of indicators
performance, a single
methodological, organizational, structural and methodological framework [5, p. 71].
It should be noted that today it is possible to qualitatively influence a child through games, i.e. joint games with a teacher or parents, in this regard, one of the forms of interaction of all participants in the educational process is interactive games
Advantages of interactive games:
1. interactive games create a motive for joint activities, arousing the curiosity of the participants, bringing them joy and increasing interest in the interaction between participants in the educational process;
2. they can create a long-term interest in self-development and in discovering their human and parental potential;
3. interactive games promote the adoption of new standards of communication and behavior;
4. get acquainted with the details of the educational process in preschool [6, p.119].
Parents' meetings are considered one of the main forms of joint work of a teacher with parents, the purpose of which is to create the conditions necessary for the development of free communication, the establishment of mutual business, pedagogical and mutual friendly relations based on the interests of raising a child. No less interesting and necessary are such interactive forms as a group discussion - a joint discussion of any controversial issue, an attempt to move towards the search for truth, which allows you to clarify or change) the opinions, positions and values of parents; round table - a conversation in which a small group of parents participate and during which there is an exchange of views between them and teachers; "symposium" - a more formalized discussion than the previous one, during which parents and a psychologist make presentations presenting their points of view, and then answer questions from the audience. Any of the parents at the "symposium" can state the topic and speak with their vision of the situation or problem.
As a result, we can conclude that the interaction between the family and the preschool is a long and painstaking work that requires patience, creativity and mutual understanding on the part of teachers and parents.
Various forms of interaction with parents allow teachers to improve the pedagogical culture of parents, significantly improve relations with families, conduct joint partnership activities for the benefit of the educational process in kindergarten.

ABSTRACT
The article describes the process of the formation of social competence of senior school students. The educational trajectory of the formation of senior school students' social competence is presented by stages of self-determination, self-development and self-realization and characterizes the peculiarities of their realization in school educational environment by means of solving social tasks of personal, public and life-futurological content identifying their own position, personal development and independent activities in the formation of social competence.
Keywords: social competence of high school students, social tasks of individual-personal, social and life-futurological content, self-determination, self-development, self-realization.
Key words: social competence of senior student, social problems of personal, public and life-futurological content, self-determination, self-development, self-realization.
Self-realization of a young person in the face of global challenges of our time is largely due to his social competence, the formation of which is currently included in the group of priority educational tasks at all levels and levels of the lifelong education system. This explains the high demands of society and the state to the formation of social competence of high school students. Students at this age are faced with the tasks of professional and life self-determination, determining their place in the system of social relations. School graduates, leaving the educational institution, plunge into the social world,
which provides them with a range of possibilities.
