Opening Joke:
Cat 1: I saw my math teacher with a piece of graph paper yesterday.
Cat 2: Be careful, I think she might be plotting something.
Cat 2: Be careful, I think she might be plotting something.
Cat with applause sign walks across stage area
Whole Group:
- X and Y whisper snapping increasing in volume
- X and Y
- X and Y
- X and Y
- X and Y
- Yeah X and Y (shouting)
Group 1
We’re a few cats chllin’ on the grid
Points on a plane livin’ in the BIG Cid
Group 2
Coordinates tell us where to be
In this place, we call Geometrocity
Group 3
State and Madison Point of Origin
Zero, zero - where it ALL begins
Group 4
X and Y on the axis line
intersecting -just fine
Group 5
We roam the quadrants on the intersections
We plot our points with coordinate directions
Group 6
Yeah we are coordinates and we come in pairs
it’s- not-solitaire.
Group 7
So if you are looking for a place to go
Plug in the coordinates and hey LETSKOOOOO!
Dance count for 24
Whole Group
X and Y
It’s a true bullseye
Listen to the cats you, kids, XY!

Welcome to Mathutopia
Opening Scene
Animal Family/rabbits (could be mixed animals) looking for a home- they’ve been displaced due to suburban sprawl/poor city planning and are embracing city life. As they talk, they are approached by two representatives from Mathutopia: a City Planner and a Real Estate Agent, both animals, in line with the Zootopia/Mathutopia theme.
Bulldozer sounds/construction sounds. Horns beeping..traffic sounds...calm music(like the simpsons intro music “the simpsons” sounds as a sign for Mathtopia appears.
Animal Dad (rabbit?): That’s it! I can’t take this construction any more. There is no rhyme or reason to it!
Animal Mom- This suburban sprawl is digging us out of burrow and home. Bless my carrots, what’s next?
Animal Kid 1: It’s time to pull up our carrots roots and move to the City!
Animal Kid 2:It’s more 21st Century. And more ecologically sound.
Animal Dad: We want to forage where we feast.
Animal Mom: And live where we work!
Animal Kid 1: It’s time to get back on the grid. If the coyotes can do it, we can too!
Opening number Whole Group Song: Welcome to Mathutopia: sung to the tune of Bare Necessities
Animal Kid2: Could this be it? We are Looking for a place that feels like home. It has to be orderly like the natural world-
Animal Kid 1 We want patterns, and symmetry. And congruence.It has to measure up!
Animal mom- Oh, and it’s got to have good schools, really good schools!
Animal dad with dad joke: speaking of schools, did I tell you the one about the geometry teacher who couldn’t come to school- she sprained her angle! LOL, right kid?
Animal kid 1- stop dad, your simplistic view of our mathematical world is embarrassing.
Animal Kid 2
Don’t you realize that everything is based on math? It’s not a joke! Grow up!
Real estate Agent 1- Whoa! Listen to the big brain on this kid. These are just the kinds of well-rounded creatures we need.
City Planner- Have we got a place for you.. Mathtopia! We are creating a world- a world based on math.
RE 1- It’s a true Geometrocity- a city with a plan- where the rules of geometry create harmony
City Planner- Where the planes are flat and the nets unite to create a place that’s as harmonious as an equal sign.
Dad-Geo Metro Wha?
Animal Kid1- Dad. It’s Geometrocity. Sheesz. The principles of geometry are used in all urban planning:- the street grid- the building construction and the parks-
Animal Kid 2 It’s all about geometry- the coordinate plane, area and perimeter, complementary angles….
Re1- slow down there kiddos. How about we show you around and you can see for yourself
City Planner- Pay attention, dad, you just might learn something!
Animal mom-: Let’s have a looksee around this Geometrocity. Let’s see if it really is a Mathtopia. Let’s see if all of your big talk ADDS up! I need PROFF!
Go into first video- Cities and Geometry
Closing Scene
CLOSING SCENE
SETTING: MOM, DAD, KIDs, REAL ESTATE AGENT, and CITY PLANNER stand CENTER STAGE looking overwhelmed after their journey across Mathtopia.
CITY PLANNER: And that is Mathopia! (to ANIMAL FAMILY) So what do you think?
MOM: Well, it’s certainly is ACUTE town! I think that we will fit right in.
DAD- You can say that again, this GeometroCITY really checks all of the SQUARES!
Animal Kid 1- Yes, This city is aligned with my need for precision. It really measures up!
Animal Kid 2- My thoughts are congruent!
Real Estate Agent- Just sign right here on the straight angle! Get it!!! LOL-
Whole family laughs…..
