Norbert and Zot

Engineers use math when they design planes. In the "Wright" Math activity, you learned about parallelograms. In this Squeak web activity, you will be able to explore parallelograms more deeply. You will create theorems about parallelograms. Mathematicians create and prove theroems and scientists, engineers, and designers use them in their work. Creating theorems will help build the muscle of your mind.

Playing is a great way to learn. The activity is set up so you can play and observe. You will also be motivated to exercise your brain. Squeak allows you to challenge yourself and modify the project. Have fun and explore.
