Description
Through this activity, students are able to see and demonstrate that all the outer points of a circle are equidistant from the center: “The cubes are on a circle!” Once students define a circle using informal language—“All the cubes are 1 stick away from the dot in the middle!”—they can differentiate the circle from other rounded shapes.
