{{activity|Small group activity|20}} Working in your small group of three to four participants, complete the following activity using GeoGebra.  In this activity, we will like you to experiment with drawing different polygons that you may not have seen before (i.e. be creative!). Draw 10 different shaped polygons using GeoGebra. As you draw, think about what is the same and what is different between those polygons, and how you could classify them into different groups.
