Geometry Unit Standards: MA.3.4 2000 - Geometry Students describe and compare the attributes of plane and solid geometric shapes and use their understanding to show relationships and solve problems. Objective: When given images, students will identify geometric concepts such as geometric, plane and solid figures. Geometric Figures -Line, Line Segment, Ray, Right angle Plain Figures Polygon, Quadrilateral, Shape names Solid Figures - Solid Names, Vertex, Face, Edge Classifying Triangles - Equilateral, Isosceles, Scalene, Right Introduction to Unit: Introduce the chapter by having students look through chapter 15 to see what will be ahead and predict what they will be learning. Make a Web of the words students suggest about “Geometry” from words they gather in the text. While the teacher creates the web on the board, have students fill out the ABC’s of worksheet while providing words.

Lesson: Geometric Figures Approximant Time: Standards: MA.3.4.6 2000 Use the terms point, line, and line segment in describing two-dimensional shapes.

MA.3.4.7 2000 Draw line segments and lines MA.3.4.2 2000 Identify right angles in shapes and objects and decide whether other angles are greater or less than a right angle. Objectives: When identifying geometric figures, students will use the terms point, line, and line segment correctly. Students will identify the differences between a line and a line segment when drawing an example.

Introduction to lesson: After completion of web and handout watch “Brain Pop on Geometry” *Brainpop.com username: southwestallen *Password: brainpop Line Figures: Introduce the terms Line, line segments, ray: Use handout of lines to help guide students. Have examples of what each figure looks like and what it does not. Hand out homework worksheet if torn out of workbook. Allow the students time to at least start the assignment and ask questions. Homework: Practice pages 15.1 problems 1-12 Take grade.

Lesson: Quadrilaterals and Plane Shapes Standard: MA.3.4.1 2000 Identify quadrilaterals as four-sided shapes. Objective: Given multiple images of plane figures, students will identify at least 3 quadrilaterals. When describing a quadrilateral, students will state it is a four-sided shape. Materials: Plane Figures and Quadrilaterals: Review names of shapes. Brain Pop Junior on shapes Brainpopjr.com username: southwestallen Password: brainpop Hand out Geometry Study Guide. Have students color in the figure as they are introduced. Introduce the term Plane Shapes and Quadrilaterals. Use pages 418-419 in textbook. Do worksheet practice 15.2 together in class.

Lesson: Solid Figures Time: 30 minutes Standards: MA.3.4.3 2000 Identify, describe, and classify: cube, sphere, prism, pyramid, cone, cylinder. MA.3.4.10 2000 Recognize geometric shapes and their properties in the environment and specify their locations. Objectives: Students will identify solid figures with correct name with looking at a picture. Students will find examples of 10 geometric shapes in the classroom. Materials: PowerPoint, Geometry Study Guide, Volume Set. Lesson: Use the PowerPoint on solid figures to introduce and review names. Solid Figures: PowerPoint Pass out “Geometry Study Guide” for students to follow along. Include the volume set for another visual aid. Have the students color in the figure when addressed. Pass out Scavenger Hunt of Figures. Have the students find examples of figures in room. First have the students work individually fir the first five minutes then work together. When finished have students give a few examples found when finished.

Solid and Plane Figures Directions: Find everyday items in the classroom that represent either a plane or solid figure.

Rectangular Prism Cube Sphere Cone Cylinder Pyramid Circle Rectangle Square Quadrilateral

Lesson: Parts of Solid Figures MA.3.4.4 2000 Identify common solid objects that are the parts needed to make a more complex solid object. Objective: When given a solid figure, the students will verbally identify faces, vertices, and edges. Materials: PowerPoint: Vertex, Faces, Edges NETs Lesson: Use PowerPoint on Vertex, Edge, and Faces. Have the students label their solid figures on the handout Geometric Study Guide. Use the PowerPoint to address the parts of a solid figure. Have students connect that faces are two dimensional shapes connected to make three dimensional shapes. Ask what the figure would look like if it was opened up and laid flat. Pass out Nets to students. Review the faces and ask what the solid figure could be if it was folded up. Do the first net together. Walk around the room for student assistance. Have the students use their nets to review Edges, Faces, and Vertices.

Lesson: Classifying Triangles Time: 35 minutes Standard: MA.3.4.10 2000

Recognize geometric shapes and their properties in the environment and specify their locations. Objective: When given images of triangles, students will identify its properties. Materials: PowerPoint Classifying Triangles Classifying triangles. Use PowerPoint of the four main triangles, equilateral, isosceles, scalene, and right triangles. Lesson: Use PowerPoint to introduce triangles. We classify triangles by its sides. Scalene: all sides different Isosceles: 2 sides the same Equilateral: All sides the same Conclusion: Use the SmartBoard Jeopardy review game containing triangles, plane figures, geometric figures, solid figures. Homework: Workbook Pages 15.4, 15.6, 15.7 for review. Take grade
