Geoboard Polygons (January 10,11, and 13)

We explored the use of geoboards with pegs and rubberbands to create unusual polygons.  

After they completed their creations, they had to count the number of sides to name the polygon.

Then they were given large graph paper for them to try to replicate their geoboard polygon.  They did extraordinarily well once they were able to plan where they would start their drawing.

I gave them extra sheets of this large graph paper (see attached pdf) with instructions for during the week to 1. Create, 2. Color, and 3. Cutout.
