Description
Summary:This programme introduces the properties of two-dimensional three and four sided shapes and is split into three sections: In the case of the disappearing shapes an animated sequence takes a look at how the world would be without four sided shapes. Getting into shape investigates how implicit shapes can be abstracted from everyday shapes around us. A sequence at the shape gym explores the properties of triangles and how some of them fit easily within quadrilaterals. Shapes within shapes expands on the properties of shapes after the disappearance of the four sided shapes when triangles are filling the gaps that have been left.
