Poster: Polygon Names
Article
Students learn the names of polygons relatively early on in school, but knowing these terms will continue to be relevant for years to come. So why not give them all the necessary information on this topic right from the start? This poster acts as a visual reminder of the names of different polygons and how many sides they have. It makes it easy to remember that a hexagon, for example, has six sides, while a decagon has ten.
