HEADS – Anything starting with the letter O

This is the first shape that Anevay was able to identify and pronounce. When I was still in school this shape is called the OBLONG. But now that I am teaching Anevay its already called OVAL. Taken from one of the pages of BRAINY BABY book.

I didn’t realize that it used to be called the oblong. Your baby is going to be so smart.

“Oval” was the first shape my youngest mastered, too. We also have a very similar book about shapes.
Happy HoT

Great post… I love the big O formed out of coins. I was confused as a child, because I had heard the word “oblong” but was taught that shape was an “oval”. I thought oblong meant a rectangle shape with rounded corners. *shifty eyes*
Happy HoT!

Cool take on the O.
The nice orange oval is lovely.
Somehow the circular things are always with us.

Nice take on the theme! I am sure I learned oval instead of oblong as well.

I like the fact that you took time to arrange our coins, shaped it in letter O. Oh yes, oblong and oval.. I remember my first grade.

Hugs and blessings,
