I found these shapes in our playground. They are circles which are great as stepping stones for playing. There are 3 rows of 3 so 3 x 3 = 9 and altogether they look like a square. I liked how the shapes go from dark to light. I shared my photograph at an assembly to the whole school. Someone said my photo was like a fraction too. 39 are in the sun and this is the same as 13. I was so happy.
