Polygon Mobiles

A mobile is a balancing piece of art. It is like what you sometimes give to a baby to look at. Polygons are 2-d flat closed shapes with straight sides.

In Geometry class we put together polygon mobiles using straws, plastic sticks, tape and yarn. We  had to sort the names and labels and build the correct polygon. We had some really cool quadrilaterals and triangles.

It was fun because we got to build in teams. Tate and Robert worked on the triangles: scalene, isosceles, equilateral, right, and acute. Maza and Itancan worked on the quadrilaterals: concave quadrilateral, trapezoid, square and rectangle.

Tate helped S. Patrice get them up on the ceiling.
