This is a part of a geometry webquest about geometric shapes for k-2 learners.

1. THE TALE OF SHAPES
by Kadriye Dal

2. In a small town, there was a
girl who crazily enjoy playing
with her toys. She has many
toys ;but the point is, she
doesn’t call them right and
always tries to find new words
for them.

3. When her mom says
«Which one do you want,
Melly?»
Melly thinks and «Hmm…the
blue one near the yellow one,
a little big….and….maybe
looks like a cake»
She waits for her mom
response, and says«Hey! Did
you find it, mom?»
Mostly her mom gets wrong
toys.

4. Melly is bored of this situation and she
knows that she has to learn how to
define her shaped toys quickly.

5. One day while Melly thinks on how to solve her
«calling» problem, there appears a fairy beyond her
toys. The fairy shakes her hand and says «Hello!»

6. Melly doesn’t believe what
she sees and says:
«Is ther a fairy beyond my
toys?»
The fairy answers:
«Yes! I am the shape fairy. I
am her to teach you how to
describe your toys, i mean
my friends. They really like
you but they are upset
because you haven’t learned
their name yet.You always
pick the wrong words for
them»

7. Melly tries to understand what is going on in her
room. Then, she thinks that this is a great
oppotunity to learn how to call her toys and if
there is a shape fairy, let’s believe in her!
After these thoughts she says the fair that:
«Ok then, time to meet my toys. Let’s learn what
they are.

8. There are a few things which
the fairy wanted from Melly,
but Melly cannot do them on
her own. Would you like to
help her?

9. First, fairy thinks that if Melly do a
small research about geometric
shapes, she will understand the
concept deeply. Could you search
the Melly’s geometric shapes list?

10. Square Oval
Triangle
Rectangle
Paralellogram
Circle
Pentagon Pyramid
Cylinder
Cube Sphere

11. Melly and Fairy says
«Thank You For Your Help!»
Becuse with your help Melly know the geometric
shapes and so knows how to call her toys!
