The bead work is well known for its beauty. The key concept I will be using is the Mathematical concept. This design is four fold symmetry. The four types of images are related to geometric images because the lines of symmetry. The four types of images are Embroidery, Plains Indians, Shoshoni Beadwork, Pawnee Buffalo Hide Drum and Navajo Rug. Reflection Symmetry is when the right half of an animal is the mirror image of the left half.  The TeePees are an example of base 4 counting. Four Fold Symmetry 3 is commonly used for healing ceremonies. Four Fold Symmetry 4 is shown as coordinates and is used to make coats. Four Fold Symmetry 5 is shown as a Cartesian Coordinate. The Native American bead work created before the European contact. These types of designs were used for TeePees and Coats.

Communication

I communicate by using my phone either texting or social media. I rely on technology to communicate with friends and family. I also rely on technology to know what's going on around the world.

In conducting searches I'm good at finding the right information. I need to improve on the type of sources I use.

Computer Buying Project

From this project I learned how much better the Apple Macbook Pro is better than a dell computer. I also learned the differences in technology and how to manage money for my needs. A challenge I had was getting some information but I eventually got the information I needed.

It's going well working with my partners.
