Shapes in Math, Science and Nature: Squares, Triangles and Circles by Catherine Sheldrick Ross, Bill Slavin

Shapes in Math, Science and Nature: Squares, Triangles and Circles

Covering math, science and physics, this book should appeal to and be useful for the upper elementary school grades through high school. It explores shapes and how they are found in nature and in mythology, and mathematical formulas and includes how to make paper shapes, origami and more. From the Sydney Opera House to Stonehenge, pyramids to igloos this book has lots of fun experiments, math problems and activities all relating to shapes. I like the book but and think that it can be useful in schools and for homeschooling as well. I received this book free to review from Netgalley.
