Access Point #: MAFS.5.G.2.AP.4aArchived Access Point

Use polygon-shaped manipulatives to classify and organize two-dimensional figures into Venn diagrams based on the attributes of the figures.
Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Use models and manipulatives to show properties of plane figures.
  • Sort two-dimensional figures based upon their properties.
  • Place sorted two-dimensional figures onto Venn diagram template (e.g., create a Venn diagram from hula hoops).
Representation:
  • Understand the following vocabulary and concepts of plane figure properties: simple plane figure (i.e., rectangle, square, trapezoid, triangle, rhombus, octagon, pentagon, hexagon) angles, sides, lines, vertices, edges, curve, straight, and Venn diagram.
  • Match plane figures to figures with like properties and add matched figures to the Venn diagram.
General Information

Category: Access Points
Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14
Cluster: Classify two-dimensional figures into categories based on their properties. (Additional Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
