Symmetrical Monsters

Kindergarteners visited the lab to learn about symmetry. After viewing a short video on symmetry around the world, students looked at a variety of monster puppets to see if they were symmetrical. Students had keen eyes noticing differences in eyes, mouths, spots, and antennae that prevented the puppets from being symmetrical. They then had the chance to create their own symmetrical monsters using a symmetry template in the drawing program Early Learning Toolkit.
