Circles

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Edward Miller. After differentiating a circle from its 3-D relatives (spheres, cylinders, cones), Adler provides step-by-step directions for drawing the 2-D shape and its various parts (diameter, radius, sectors, etc.) and for measuring its circumference and area. Clear visuals reinforce activity instructions, geometry terms, and concepts (e.g., pi). Friendly animal illustrations provide opportunities for identifying specific circle parts. Answers to the activities are appended. Glos.
