Polygonoid
Description
by Shawn and Nikolai

We are going to show you how to make our helpful polygonoid named Doy-doy. There are 31 pieces to our polygonoid: 6 squares, 2 hexagons, 13 rhombi, 4 triangles, 4 trapezoids, and 2 parallelograms.

There are two blue rhombi for the hair and two squares in between the hair. There are two squares on either side of the hair. There are two rhombi for the forehead. There is an empty space in the shape of a rhombus for the nose. Then there are two triangles facing down for the eyes. The seven rhombi look like a spider with two legs. Then two trapezoids and two triangles make the shape of a rhombus. The two rhombi on the bottom of the triangle look like a beard. The two hexagons are attached to the side of the face below the parallelogram ears. The whole thing looks like an Indian face with earrings.

The skin is brown. The eyes are looking left and a blue line is going to the right from the pupil. The eye also has blood vessels. Color the hexagons red, they are the cheeks. There is a vertical rhombus for the mouth, color it black. here are two hairs on the top of the head. Our polygonoid’s name is Doy-Doy. That is how you make Doy-Doy.

Analysis
by Nikolai and Shawn

Hello, third graders, this is our note to you about Doy-doy, our polygonoid. The eyes and the body around the eyes were made correctly. The hexagons were colored the right color. Ours is not as colorful as yours. Your Doy-doy has lots of colors, which makes it look joyful.

We think you did a good job and we should have made our description easier for you to understand. Our Doy-doy did not have hanging ears. We should have said that the earrings were added on. Our beard didn’t really look like a beard. We think the reason you made it wrong was because our description was not clear. Thank you for trying to re-make our polygonoid. We think you did a good job with our directions.
