Unit 8

Geometry

"In this unit, the focus is on simple constructions, the Cartesian plane, and transformations. Students will begin by identifying parallel and perpendicular line segments found in the environment. They will explore a variety of methods to construct their own parallel and perpendicular segments, while developing a vocabulary of geometric terms. The concept of bisector, both line and angle, will be introduced and the construction of bisectors will be developed. The Cartesian plane will be presented and points on the plane will be identified using ordered pairs. Congruence and orientation will be addressed for each transformation. Prime notation will be used and students will explore the properties of combined transformations." - Grade 7 Curriculum Guide
