10 A hula hoop is like a racetrack: Calculating the circumference, radius, and area of a circle. Provided by Kenan Fellows Program. Student can use hula hoops to explore basic geometry concepts and indirect measurement. In this lesson, students will use hoops of different sizes to explore geometry concepts such as circumference, area, and radius.
An ellipse, informally, is an oval or a squished circle. In primitive geometrical terms, an ellipse is the figure you can draw in the sand by the following process: Push two sticks into the sand. Take a piece of string and form a loop that is big enough to go around the two sticks and still have some slack.
