Today, we used the notion of similarity to create a series of drawings on the coordinate plane. The figures we drew were called "wumps", and we looked to see if they were similar to each other. In essence, this activity helped drive home the point that in similar figures, the angle measures are preserved, and the side lengths are some constant factor (bigger or smaller) multiplied by the original length.
