I made sure we had finished reading and doing the workbooks this week since I wanted the girls to have plenty of time to work on the more complicated drawings.
Day 1: We reviewed the 12 division of the circle (p. 36 # 2 in Making Math Meaningful) and practice the 24 division of the circle (P. 36 # 3) and we did an equiangular spiral (p. 37 top of page). Then, we reviewed the contruction of an hexagon (p. 35 top of page) and did nested hexagons in our MLB.
Day 2: We worked on turning squares today (inspiration at the bottom of p.128 in Making Math Meaningful) and reproduced some in our MLB.
Day 3: We played with rotation of circles (explanations on top of p. 39 in Making Math Meaningful and exemples on p. 129) and reproduced some in our MLB. The first one is a 24 epicycle with larger circumference and the second one is a 24 epicycle with equal circumference.
Day 4: We played with limaçon and cardioid (explanation on p. 39 of Making Math Meaningful and exemples on p. 130) and reproduced some in our MLB.
Day 5: We did 24 epicycles with 2 focal points in our MLB. This is the exact same drawing, simply colored differently.
