Line or Shape Assignnment



When you look closely at the images, i would say that image b and d are lines. A and D are shapes. I think that they are lines because they don't it only has two points to it and a lines is a long band or line. A and D are shapes simply because they are actual shapes. The narrow triangle would be confusing to the eye because it stretched out and narrow. What makes a shape is when all the lines meet to form a shape. What makes a line is when ther is only two points with a start and a finish. The images are good at decieving the eye so its very confusing to tell whats what.

String Project

I think the experience with the lines and shapes exercise was pretty cool and very interesting. I also enjoyed the the string project also. I thought it was interesting because it took something as simple as string to show us how we can made up lines and shapes to understand the lecture better. I actually wouldn't have done anything differently because you get to utilize the classroom space to put the structure together. My first impression was that i was a little confused on the assignment at first, but after we started a quickly became aware of the project and a thought it was pretty cool. It was interesting also to try to navigate your way through all the string. It was extra interesting trying to untangle it also.
