Celebrity Reader

Next week, we will have a Celebrity Reader.  I will choose one of the students to read a book that will be published on the blog.  So exciting!  Check back next Friday!  Oooooh! Who will it be?

Lines, Angles, Polygons, Oh My!

     A line is a line, right?  The students will say no.  This week, we have learned there are parallel, intersecting, and perpendicular. Also, there are 4 types of angles, and many different polygons.  
     Check out these fun videos at studyjams.com.
