I've Got that Geometry Bug!
Geo,
The Geometry Bug
Once
upon a time a very long time ago there lived a geometry bug named Geo. He lived
in the small town of Geoville. All in all, Geo was a very happy little bug. He
led a nice, peaceful life in Geoville. But this was no ordinary bug. No, there
was something different about Geo. He was made completely out of geometric
figures. Everything from his antennas all the way down to the spiracles on his
abdomen was some kind of shape.
Even
though Geo was made of geometric shapes, he still looked like a normal bug. He
was just your everyday common insect. Geo’s three body parts were made of
spheres and had a smoky black glow. His beautiful golden wings were made up of
a combination of an isosceles triangle and a circle. These were perfect for
flying around the neighborhood. On top of his wings were six shimmery stars.
Even though they aren’t regular, stars are still polygons. The circular
spiracles on Geo’s abdomen let him breathe. His legs are a cylinder with a cube
on the end of it, which helps him to do a little bit of walking around when he
has to. The two fuzzy brown antennas on Geo’s forehead are also cylinders. His
eyes are in the shape of giant circles, which help him to see at night.
Geo’s
favorite thing to do is show off his gorgeous wings to all of his friends. They
are all jealous of the six glittering stars that sit on top of them. Geo spends
most of his time cruising around town because he is so proud of his golden
wings. During the night when the moon is out, the light reflects off of him in
such a way that he looks like he is glowing. Geo’s large, round eyes help him
see when he flies at night.
In
the little time that Geo spends on the ground he likes to walk around on his
short, cylindrical legs. He and his friends hang out a lot in the Town Square.
In the square there are so many things for Geo and his friends to do. They go
there every day after school gets out and most of the time they stay there
until very late at night. Everyone goes to the Polygon Arcade or the Geoville
Movie Theatre. But their favorite place by far is the Hexagon Diner. It serves
all of their favorite foods- pizza, potato chips, chocolate, and all kinds of
pop. Geo and his buddies go there for just about every meal. Afterwards, they
usually fly around and see what else there is to do.
In
Geoville, the young bugs only go to school for a few hours everyday. Geo’s
favorite subject to study in school is geometry. When he grows up, he wants to
be a geometry teacher because he loves it so much. He also likes art class
because he makes pictures made completely out of geometrical shapes.
Geo
still lives happily in the town of Geoville with his friends. They admire his
golden wings and sparkling stars. They fly around town and hang out in the Town
Square. All and all, Geo is a very happy little bug.
