Make a unique star Take a square of paper Fold along the 4 lines of symmetry In card or stiff paper, cut out an interesting triangle (one with an angle of 20o, 30 o, 36 o, 40 o, 45 o, 60 o, 120 o or any other factor of 360 o) Place the longest side of the triangle along each line of symmetry in turn, and draw round it, always keeping the same corner at the centre of the rotation. Extension Two identical shapes on top of each other look good 2 of these cut out of tissue paper and glued symmetrically overlapping make a good window decoration an isosceles triangle looks good if the base is a lot bigger than the 2 equal sides Try an equilateral triangle, and let the rotations overlap Use a 360 protractor to create more than 4 lines of symmetry Pritt stick and glitter looks good
