In a medieval town far far away 

from anything lived a girl named 

Ann. Ann lived in a town called 

Whoville. In Whoville, school had 

a big focus on math. However, 

Ann had no idea how she would 

apply all this math after school 

was over. 

Ann was walking home from school upset. 

She had just finished her math, where she 

learned about shapes and again wondered 

when will she use this in real life. When 

she saw her friend James in her neighborhood.

James ran over to Ann.

James asked Ann what was 

bothering her. Ann quickly 

explained that she doesn't think 

that she will never use the math 

that she learned in school. James 

pulled out his cell phone and dialed 

a number. Ann was confused on 

what was happening. 

Soon enough an alien tapped Ann on 

the shoulder. 

Ann was speechless. 

"This is my special friend, Hagrad. He 

is going to show you how we use math 

everyday." James explained.

"Hello" Hagrad spoke.

"Uh hello?" Ann managed to say.

"What did you learn in math today, 

Ann?" Asked Hagrad.

"We looked at different shapes, today."

"Perfect, let's go on an adventure 

then!"

Off went Hagrad, Ann, and James went 

on an adventure of a lifetime.

For the first stop they landed on the 

beaches of Hawaii. 

As they walked the beaches they 

observed many sandcastles. 

They looked at the different shapes of 

the sandcastles. Some were square, 

others were rectangular, some had    

triangle tops.  

"Look at that sandcastle" pointed out 

James.

"That one is very cool!"

"What shape is the sandcastle?" asked 

Hagrad.

James and Ann observed that the castle 

had triangle shape sides with a 

rectangle base. After some thought 

they agreed that it was in shape of a 

pyramid.  

After they walked the beaches, they went to 

dinner at a restaurant that looked like a 

pirate ship. 

"What are they shapes of the cannons?" 

Hagrad asked.

"Well they have circular rectangle 

shape" James pointed out.

"That means it is a cylinder!" Ann 

confirmed. 

"What about the hole that the cannon is 

shot through?"
