Anusha in wonderland Part -10

Anusha had given names to all magic math school children. But in case of Circles and Ovals, she could not include name of points because there was no end or corner for them.

She thought over but could not find the answer. She even did not know how to draw these figures correctly in drawing. She then asked her Mom about it. Mom brought compass box from shop and gave it to Anusha as a present for interest she has shown in .

She also showed her how to draw circle by using pair of compass. She marked a point on paper and fixed one end of compass on the point and turned the compass. Pencil was attached to the other end. Hence a circle was drawn on paper.


For drawing oval Mom fixed two pins on paper and tied a long string to both these pins. Then by holding pencil in the thread she drew an oval shape.

Anusha was very happy. Not just for knowing how to draw these figures but realizing the importance of centre and anchor points for circle and oval. She felt even circle and oval children in the school may not be knowing that points are necessary for their identification.
