I can draw a circle

Today we learned all about the circle.  We did a shape hunt around the room to see if we could find circles in our every day environment.  What circles can you find at home!? In our visual journals we drew circles and turned them into every day objects like: Pizzas, clocks and plates!  Please ask me what pictures I drew in my journal.
