Patterns exhibit relationships that can be extended, described, and generalized.
Geometric relationships can be described, analyzed, and classified based on spatial reasoning and/or visualization.
How can patterns be used to describe relationships in mathematical situations?
How can recognizing repetition or regularity assist in solving problems more efficiently
How are spatial relationships, including shape and dimension, used to draw, construct, model, and represent real situations or solve problems?
Using a tangram set students work in partners to figure out how to make different shapes using a set amount of pieces from the set at a time.
Students make shape riddles to exchange with a partner to try to solve.
Students use geoboards to make different quadrilaterals recording their answers. Then they compare and contrast them explaining their thinking.
Students have to identify the shape and write its name on the line.
Students have to identify everyday items shown in the pictures with what solid figure they match
Students build and color a cootie catcher that will show different solid shapes by pictures and words.
