Take a Walk

How is taking a walk, related to math… well, I want you to observe – what types of shapes and lines do you see?  How many circle, triangles, patterns, parallel lines, perpendicular lines, acute angles, obtuse angles, right angles, squares, rectangles, octagons, hexagons… how many geometric terms can you find?  Make it a game, each person has to name a different geometric shape or related math  vocabulary (I see the sum of 7 and 2).  You could take it a step further and make a graph or table of your findings for each day and  you could compare your findings.
