As children progress through understanding the
foundation of a concept, such as shapes, began to
plan for the next step in development. Shapes can
exist inside other shapes, but do they exist in the

more realistic experience (Hewes and MacEwan,
2006). Go on a walk to visit to discover the
architecture of different buildings in the city. How
do shapes play a role in the construction of
different buildings?
