While reading about spatial sense, I immediately thought of my observation at Meridian’s Kindergarten class. I remember seeing students learning the relationships between shapes and their version of a description of each shape (VDW p 403). It was not until I started reading about the 5 levels and its components that I started piecing together what I saw in the classroom and how I am applying it to the reading. During my observation, students were well beyond Level 0 because, at this point, they all knew names of basic shapes. At that point, they were probably at level 1, based on the description from the book (VDW p404). Students at the kindergarten class were able to recognize the class of shape using visual characteristics of each shape.
