Properties of circles

[Doris Gottlieb]

Thanks for the explanation. I'm definitely going to try this soon.  I find
the whole conversation about the quality of different formations really
inspiring as well.

Therese, Doris--

It really does work.  Putting your chair square to the center means making
sure that your chair faces the center straight on, not slanted off to one
side
or the other.

Your chair must be a bit behind those on either side because every point on
the circumference of a circle is equidistant from the center.  From your
point,
your chair is a bit behind the ones on either side.  From your neighbor's
point, she is a bit behind you.

I had never thought about these rules consciously, but when I read Chris'
directions, I realized that when I am asked to expand the circle to make
space
for more chairs, I move back and then instinctively look to see if I am a
bit
behind my neighbors.

One of those things that is easier to do than to explain!

Joelle
