Here are some photos sent to us by
children at Aycliffe Drive Primary School:

Jonathan's Key:
- Quadrillaterals are blue; I know this because they have 4
sides.
- Right angle triangles are light brown; they have one right
angle, 3 sides and 3 angles.
- Scalene triangles are pink; I know this because I went on the
computer and found out a scalene triangle has 3 unequal sides and 3
angles.
- Irregular pentagons are black; they have 5 unequal sides
and angles.
- Obtuse triangles are green; these are triangles with one obtuse
angle.

Chloe at Aycliffe Drive Primary School:
Great use of colours and patterns to
differentiate between triangles, quadrilaterals and
pentagons.
