Geometric Patterns

This week we did some geometric patterns. The tools we used were a protractor, a ruler, a sharp pencil and colouring pencils. Some of the shapes in side of the circle is hexagon, a star, a triangle, a diamond and a circle. We had to use degrees such as 60 degrees,120 degrees,180 degrees,240 degrees and a few more. We had to do diagonal lines. For mine I put a dot every 60 degrees using my protractor. 

                  Here is mine.
