I Can Spell Quadrilateral
By: S. Wargaski
I can spell side, S-I-D-E.
I can spell four, F-O-U-R.
I can spell right, R-I-G-H-T.
But I can’t spell quadrilateral.
I can spell square, S-Q-U-A-R-E.
I can spell kite, K-I-T-E
I can spell polygon, P-O-L-Y-G-O-N.
But I can’t spell quadrilateral.
I can spell rhombus, R-H-O-M-B-U-S.
I can spell ninety, N-I-N-E-T-Y.
I can spell parallel, P-A-R-A-L-L-E-L.
But I can’t spell quadrilateral.
Yes, I can!
Yes, I can!
Q-U-A-D, R-I-L-A, T-E-R-A-L…Quadrilateral!
Triangles
By: S. Wargaski
Triangles here, triangles there,
Triangles, triangles everywhere!
Right triangles turning sharply,
Equilateral triangles comparing equally,
Obtuse triangles opening widely,
And isosceles triangles standing symmetrically.
Triangles on a sailboat,
Triangles in an orchestra,
Triangles under bridges,
And triangles in your elbow.
Triangles here, triangles there,
Triangles, triangles everywhere!
Triangles! Triangles! Triangles!

I’m a Circle
By: S. Wargaski
I’m a circle, nice and round,
Look and see what can be found.
A plane figure is what I am,
But not a polygon, no, ma’am!
I’m a circle – A ring of points.
I’m a circle – A ring of points.
I don’t have any sides that you can see,
My points lie all the way ‘round me.
None of my points will ever get closer,
We’re all this far away from the center.
I’m a circle – loop, baby, loop.
I’m a circle – loop, baby, loop.
Measure across and through the center,
The number you get is the diameter.
Now a radius is what we need to get,
Cut it in half and you are set!
I’m a circle – like a hula hoop!
I’m a circle – like a hula hoop!
Geometry Bugaloo
By: S. Wargaski
I’m the Queen of Geometry and I’m here to say,
I measure lengths and angles every day!
Sometimes I use a meter stick and a calculator too,
Other times only a protractor will do.
Classifying, categorizing, and sorting too.
Doing the Geometry Bugaloo!
Points, lines, rays, and planes start our study,
Combine to make angles - then onto shapes.
From triangles to pentagons – and circles too,
Sides, angles, and degrees – then we’re through.
So many figures, names, and types, what’s a girl to do?

Angle Cadence
By: S. Wargaski
I don’t know what you’ve been told,
All these angles can’t be controlled!
A vertex here and rays over there,
I see angles everywhere!
Sound off Two rays!
Sound off Share an endpoint!
Sound off – 1, 2, 3, 4…Angles!
Right angles have 90°.
Straight angles look like a line.
Acute angles are small inside.
Obtuse angles open up wide.
Sound off Measure it!
Sound off Protractor
Sound off – 1, 2, 3, 4…Angles!
