Introduction
Geometric shapes can often seem like a “mystery.” You are going to become a C.S.I. detective (“Cool Shape Detective”). Your first assignment will be an investigation of the properties of a set of geometric shapes. As in all good detective work, the information must be classified into groups and displayed so all your fellow C.S.I.’s will understand the concept, and the mystery will be solved!
