 * Steps to project:**
 * Select 5 geometric figures.
 * Research and define figures using the links below. Save all definitions in a Word Document.

 * Create a glog and include the name of the figure, definition and a picture of the real world example.

**Step 1:**

 * 1) Open a Word document. Type your Name and insert date in header.
 * 2) Select 5 geometric figures from table below.
 * 3) Type the names in Word.
 * 4) Save As: Geometry - in your 5th grade class folder.
