Posted by jalvaro in Home | No Comments

I was looking for some cool games about shapes and came across this video of the Yardbirds from 1960 something and thought you might be interested in seeing a music video older than your grandfather. They sing about shapes but I don’t think its the kind of shapes we are learning about in class.

Just below the video is a cool game about shapes that I would like you to give a try.

Click here to play the shape game.

IF YOU WERE TO ASK ME HOW I KNOW SUMMER IS COMING I CAN EASILY TELL YOU WHY.

1.  YESTERDAY I HEARD THE ICE CREAM TRUCK SINGING IT’S SONG DOWN MY STREET FOR THE FIRST TIME THIS YEAR.  THAT’S A SURE SIGN SUMMERS CLOSE BY.

2. AND AS I WAS DRIVING HOME YESTERDAY I SAW THEM STARTING TO SET UP THE GILBRATER TRADE CENTER CARNIVAL.   WHEN I SEE THOSE RIDES GOING UP I KNOW FOR SURE IT IS SUMMER TIME.

WHAT ABOUT YOU?
