by Margaret Smart
An exciting book full of geometry excursions especially for the middle grade student. Students learn about diagonals of a polygon, the secrets of a triangle, patterns in polygons, using the protractor to measure angles, building polyhedra models and Euler’s theorem. The book features a Geometry Dictionary Project which can be used to culminate a study in geometry.
Brief excursions in Tessellations, Pentominoes and Tangrams also included. Used extensively and successfully with middle school students. A great Replacement Unit!
