With its six straight sides, this member of the shape squad can be seen inside a bee's hive or decorating a soccer ball--it's the hexagon. In this vibrant, colorful book kids will join the hexagon character to learn how to recognize, name, and describe the attributes of this shape. They will meet the other 2-D members of the squad (square, circle, rectangle, and triangle) and they will enjoy a first introduction to some of the group's chunky 3-D friends. Using photos, young learners will enjoy spotting and identifying hexagons in the real world. And children will learn to use geometry vocabulary including--above, below, beside, in front of, behind, and next to. Perfectly aligned with the Common Core Standards for Mathematics, this vibrant mix of illustrations, photographs, and engaging text will help Kindergarten and first grade students develop their early geometry skills.
