"This is the large hexagon box. Start by taking out all the triangles. Generally, I tell the children these are different types of triangles. Trace the bold line, and match it up. That makes a hexagon, that makes a parallelogram, that makes a triangle, that makes a rhombus. When I'm talking to the children I ask them to repeat the names as I say them. Rhombus, parallelogram, hexagon, and triangle. Now that I'm done I'm going to put them back in the box. Always start with the largest one first. If you put them back in here properly, the lid will go on. That is the large hexagon box."
