A limerick by JoBeth O'Neal and Eve Gillespie
There once was a square
Who took a dare
To learn about proofs and theorems
He knew he shouldn't fear 'em
But if he memorized the formulas he knew he would get there.

Shape Rhyming Game
By Angela Buraglio & Corrie McCall
Who didn’t think it was fair,
That the circle had pretty hair.
Along came some triangles,
That wore pretty gold bangles,
And their hair was all tangled.
His first name was Llyod,
That all the shapes would avoid.
No shape is lame,
When you play the shape rhyming game!
A Tale of Two Parallels
by Erica Hayes & Maria Jarrell
On one fine bright and sunny day
Two parallels went out to play.
They liked to run in one straight line,
But one of them began to whine.
“I like you a whole lot,” she said,
With no more breath and face bright red.
He said, “Oh wow! I like you too!
I think this date is overdue!”
So on their date they merrily went,
But neither one was quite content.
They really wanted to hold hands, you see.
But “NO Touching!” is the parallel decree.
“Oh me! Oh my! I’ve got a plan!”
Said the parallel named Jan.
If we marry we can touch
And I would like that very much!
So off to Vegas went the two.
They honeymooned in great Peru.
There’s only one small problem now…
They’re attached for life! Those silly vows.
Perpendiculars they’ll be forevermore,
Right angles? Yes. They now have four.
So parallels, just quit complaining.
Having right angles takes lots of training.
Appreciate your “no touch” life,
Cause’them right angles… all they do is cause strife.
Just learn to love what makes you YOU!
Whether perpendicular, parallel, or a blue kangaroo!

All About Pi (Limerick)
By Erin Hayes & Katie King
Always in sync
I’m celebrated,
Not hated,
A circle problems’ connecting link.
Geometry Class
By Danielle Abee and Erin Robertson
My math class talked about a ray.
Even though it wasn’t sunny outside
Our class went on a rollercoaster ride.
Mr. Miller related our trip to right angles
Then we talked about isosceles triangles.
And taught me all about pie.
Not the kind you eat on a plate.
More like the stuff some kids hate.
Pie R squared is now what I know.
I have to if I don’t want my grade to be low.
The next I learned about isosceles, right, and scalene triangles.
Then Pythagorean Theorem is what my class talked about.
As for what I understand, I have some doubt.
All in all I enjoy math class…
Except on the day I measured mass!
Geometry Beats
By Jennifer Cantwell and LeAnn Wood
Telling them apart is a matter of degree
The congruent angles they form are just fine
Just subtract the known angle from one hundred and eighty degrees
Just square the radius and multiply by Pi!
CIRCLE
By Jennifer Cantwell and LeAnn Wood
In donuts and wheels, circles abound
Radius is half the diameter
Circles are easily made using your protractor
Large and small,
Entrancing us all, circles!
