Children's book about developmental issues?

Geometry Project, i have to write a childrens book?

• ok i have to write a childrens book about geometry that is on the 1 of the following state standards any ideas about what i should write about? it has to be 10 childrens book pages long (about 3 lines a page because it needs to have illustrations) 1 of the names she told us somebody did was Sir Cumfrence (we can't use that) SO please, give me some ideas (and if you actually write the story for me you get 10 points) here are the standards 1.0 Students demonstrate understanding by identifying and giving examples of undefined terms, axioms, theorems, and inductive and deductive reasoning. 2.0 Students write geometric proofs, including proofs by contradiction. 3.0 Students construct and judge the validity of a logical argument and give counterexamples to disprove a statement. 6.0 Students know and are able to use the triangle inequality theorem. 7.0 Students prove and use theorems involving the properties of parallel lines cut by a transversal, the properties of quadrilaterals, and the properties of circles. 8.0 Students know, derive, and solve problems involving the perimeter, circumference, area, volume, lateral area, and surface area of common geometric figures. 9.0 Students compute the volumes and surface areas of prisms, pyramids, cylinders, cones, and spheres; and students commit to memory the formulas for prisms, pyramids, and cylinders. 10.0 Students compute areas of polygons, including rectangles, scalene triangles, equilateral triangles, rhombi, parallelograms, and trapezoids. 12.0 Students find and use measures of sides and of interior and exterior angles of triangles and polygons to classify figures and solve problems. 13.0 Students prove relationships between angles in polygons by using properties of complementary, supplementary, vertical, and exterior angles. 14.0 Students prove the Pythagorean theorem. 15.0 Students use the Pythagorean theorem to determine distance and find missing lengths of sides of right triangles. 16.0 Students perform basic constructions with a straightedge and compass, such as angle bisectors, perpendicular bisectors, and the line parallel to a given line through a point off the line. 22.0 Students know the effect of rigid motions on figures in the coordinate plane and space, including rotations, translations, and reflections.

• Answer:

  Look at the book The Greedy Triangle by Marilyn Burns. It is a very simple, yet great example of a children's math related book. Also check out some of the MathStart books by Stuart Murphy. You could write a fable as well - something like How the Triangle Got 3 Sides or something. Have fun, this sounds like a fun assignment!
