New Assignment: Create a Wanted: Polygon Person Posters

The students will create a Wanted: Polygon Person poster by using all the different types of polygons- triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and octagons- to create a person.  For example, the student can use any polygon such as a hexagon for the head of the person and two equilateral triangles for the eyes, etc. After designing a person, the students will write a paragraph describing their person by using appropriate geometry terms on an index card.  They will transfer their written description onto the blog as a post. Once all 'Wanted' posters are created, students will be responsible for matching the description with the polygon person.
