We are studying geometry in Math. We have learned about angles, triangles, polygons, and quadrangles. All are 2 dimensional. Our focus is now being turned on to 3 dimensional objects. Poly means many and hedron means faces, so a polyhedron is an object with many faces. We constructed two polyhedrons: a square pyramid and a triangular prism. Then participated in a compare and contrast activity with these two polyhedrons.
Not to be confused with polyhydrants, which spray water in several directions at once.
