Vocabulary: Quadrilateral, parallelogram, parallel, diagonal, bisect, polygon, specialist, right angles, opposite, arrows, degrees

For this activity we had to use the seven stars of Matariki as points to draw a rhombus. A rhombus is a specialised four sided figure. It’s opposite lines are parallel and the diagonals must bisect each other to create a 90 degree angle.

I enjoyed doing this activity however I did have a few difficulties. Only about two words confused me which were bisect and parallelogram. However now I have a sound understanding of  both what it means and what is a rhombus.
