Polygonoid
Description
by Isaiah and Andrea

We are going to explain how to make a polygonoid. The kitten is jump roping. She is about seven inches tall. She is standing up with her arms out to the sides. She is swinging a jump rope over her head. She has wearing a hat. She has two legs that are square. Put three hexagons above each other in a vertical line to make part of the head and part of the body. Put a trapezoid on top of the head to make a hat. Next put four blue diamonds on the left and right side of the body. Next put two trapezoids under the ends of the top trapezoid. Then put two trapezoids near the bottom of the legs. Put two orange squares below the bottom trapezoid for feet. Put two triangles, which should fit perfectly, between the bottom blue diamond and trapezoid, one left and right. To make the arms put two blue diamonds on each side facing out. Now to make the jump rope get 11 white diamonds and make them go over the body, touching each other. We hope you enjoyed making our polygonoid.

Analysis
by Andrea

Thank you for making our polygonoid. You did many things correctly. The jump rope was right, the feet were right, and the hexagons were placed correctly. We should have said to put the two blue rhombuses against the body without leaving any spaces. The two trapezoids near the bottom should have been touching the bottom hexagon. Your version of the Jump Roping Kitten was done well. We hope you had fun making it.
