Hey kiddo! Today we're going to talk about an octagram. An octagram is a shape that has eight points and looks like a star.
Imagine drawing a circle, but instead of a smooth line, you make eight sharp corners on the outside. This gives the circle eight points that stick out like rays. Now, if you connect the points with straight lines, you'll end up with an octagram!
It's kind of like drawing an eight-pointed star, but instead of making two triangles with four points each, you make an eight-pointed shape with lines that are all the same length.
Octagrams are really cool because they have a lot of symmetry. This means that if you split the octagram in half, each side will look the same. You can also rotate the octagram and it will still look the same.
People have been using octagrams in their art and designs for a long time. They show up in all sorts of places, like in ancient symbols and modern logos. They can even be found in patterns on clothes and fabrics.
So now you know, an octagram is a shape with eight points that looks like a star. Have fun drawing your own octagram!
