We took advantage of the sunny spring days to continue working with kites.

After studying the characteristics of the right-angled triangles, we discovered that four right-angled triangles joined together gave life to another geometric figure: the rhombus.

We have also discovered that this shape is typical of kites and we indulged to build colored ones with our right-angled triangles, to decorate our classroom.

 

We also tried to build kites using garbage bags, toothpicks and string. We have thus obtained kites, not very beautiful (we admit it), but perfectly flying and with a minimum expense.
