Pattern Block Puzzles by Jordan I. and JuWan
Pattern blocks have pretty colors!!! Our story is about pattern block puzzles. We learned using pattern block puzzles on January 15. We used a trapezoid and a little triangle to make a three-sided figure with three angles because it is a bigger triangle. On a trapezoid two sides are parallel and two sides are intersecting if you drew the lines longer. A rhombus may look like it is intersecting, but it isn't. A rhombus is slanted but it is parallel either way. Two trapezoids make a hexagon because if you put the bottoms of two trapezoids together you get a hexagon.
