Chapter 10

Parallel & Perpendicular Lines

4th Grade: Chapter 10 Outline

Week 23 - Week 24

Essential Questions:

  • How can I draw perpendicular and parallel line segments using a drawing triangle?
  • How can I identify horizontal and vertical lines?

Content:

Students will know and understand:

    • Perpendicular line segments
    • Drawing triangle
    • Parallel line segments
    • Base
    • Horizontal lines
    • Vertical lines

Skills:

Students Will:

    • Draw perpendicular line segments.
    • Draw parallel line segments.
    • Identify horizontal and vertical lines.

Upon completion of Unit 10:

  • 4.G.A.1. Draw points, lines, line segments, rays, angles (right, acute, obtuse), and perpendicular and parallel lines. Identify these in two-dimensional figures.
  • 4.G.A.2. Classify two-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines, or the presence or absence of angles of a specified size. Recognize right triangles as a category, and identify right triangles.
  • MP.1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
  • MP.2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
  • MP.3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
  • MP.4. Model with mathematics.
  • MP.5. Use appropriate tools strategically.
  • MP.6. Attend to precision.
  • MP.7. Look for and make use of structure.
  • MP.8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
