A trapezoid is a shape with two parallel sides. The parallel sides are called bases, while the other two sides are the legs. The term trapezoidal is used when describing the shape of some creatures.
Read the recently published children's picture book, then learn more at the website:
A TRAPEZOID IS NOT A DINOSAUR written and illustrated by Suzanne Morris teaches children about shapes within the context of a play audition. The trapezoid must convince the other shapes that it deserves a place in the Shapes in Space show. This adorable story is a fun and effective way to kick off a lesson about trapezoids.
