Join Sir Cumference, Lady Di of Ameter, and Radius on their first Math Adventure!
When King Arthur's knights sit at their conference table, it's so long that everyone has to shout to be heard. Enter Sir Cumference, his wife Lady Di of Ameter, and their son Radius. Can they "measure up" to the challenge of building a better table? With the help of the carpenter, Geo of Metry, this sharp-minded team designs the perfect table conducive to discussing the perfect peace plan.
Explore the castle, watch a tournament, and ride along with Sir Cumference as he searches for the shape of the future. Noisy knights, a clever carpenter, and a juggling jester all add to the fun.
Geometry is explained with humor in Sir Cumference and the First Round Table, making it fun and accessible for beginners. Basic geometric shapes and terms introduced in this story include rectangle, square, parallelogram, triangle, octagon, oval, circle, diameter, radius, and circumference.
Use this as an enjoyable introduction to geometry or as a fun reward for good math work!
