Snowman Challenge

Geometric Snowman

Create a snowman on paper that uses as many polygons as possible. You can draw it or cut and paste the pieces together. Be creative! You many find different-sized circular objects at home to trace for the circles. You should create a base, mid-section and head for your snowman. Try to include polygons for the eyes, nose, mouth, hat and scarf.

Elapsed Time Challenge

This is a tricky one! Read carefully!

in Winnipeg to switch planes. The flight from Vancouver
to Winnipeg was 2 hours and 30 minutes long. Ms. Earl
was in Winnipeg for 2 hours and 15 minutes, and her
flight from Winnipeg to Montreal was 1 hour and 45
minutes long. Ms. Earl landed in Montreal at 7:30 P.M.
What time did Ms. Earl's first flight leave Vancouver?

Include A.M. or P.M. in your answer (for example, 11:58 A.M.).

Your solution is due on Monday. Please be sure to show
your thinking (on a time line, chart, clocks, etc.) and your answer.
