Using shape attribute clues, the student will determine shapes that fit these clues and describe a category to which they both belong.

Using shape attribute clues, the student is asked to determine two shapes that fit these clues and describe a category to which both belong.

Students discuss the attributes of squares and rhombuses and consider how these two shapes are related.

Students are asked to describe the defining attributes of parallelograms and to consider the relationship between rectangles and parallelograms.

In this lesson, you will find clip art and various illustrations of polygons, circles, ellipses, star polygons, and inscribed shapes.

This set of geometry challenges focuses on creating a variety of polygons as students problem solve and think as they learn to code using block coding software.  Student will need to use their knowledge of the attributes of polygons and mathematical principals of geometry to accomplish the given challenges. The challenges start out fairly simple and move to more complex situations in which students can explore at their own pace or work as a team. Computer Science standards are seamlessly intertwined with the math standards while providing “Step it up!” and “Jump it up!” opportunities to increase rigor.

In this lesson students will use standards-based quadrilaterals and triangles to design a roller coaster tower. Students will use the Engineering Design Process to work through the processes in this lesson.

In this lesson, students will identify and classify triangles. In addition, students will demonstrate how to solve problems requiring attention to approximation, selection of appropriate measuring tools, and precision of measurement using triangles.

In this lesson, students will practice classifying and naming quadrilaterals. Students will take notes and use the notes to complete a quadrilaterals Venn diagram. Students will be asked to name and classify quadrilaterals using all applicable names.

"Where in the Venn are the Quadrilaterals?" is an activity that helps the student to develop a better understanding of classifying two-dimensional figures in a hierarchy based on properties.

The student will be engaged in a paper plane making activity while discovering the attributes of different triangles. The students will learned the similarities and differences of the following triangles: scalene, isosceles, equilateral, right, obtuse, and acute.

By the end of this tutorial you should be able to identify examples of quadrilaterals and their defining attributes to classify them using diagrams. We will focus on kites and other quadrilaterals in this tutorial.
