    2. It has at least one pair of sides that run the same way and never meet.
    3. In this course, parallelograms count as trapezoids too.

    I can memorize a short poem and explain a nonliteral line.

    The Moon at Night

    The moon climbs up the evening sky, A silver coin held way up high. It peeks inside my window pane, Then hides behind the clouds again. It does not walk, it does not run, It waits all day to chase the sun. And when I wake, it slips away, To let the morning have its day.

    A full moon shines in the night sky above a row of houses, next to a cloud and stars.
