⭐ Connecting Geometric Reasoning to Essential Key Concepts ⭐️
Exploring Geometric Reasoning offers authentic opportunities to revisit the Essential Key Concepts of Number Sense:
B1.2 → Compare and order numbers to 1000
Sorting 3D objects by comparing the number of faces, edges, vertices, and angles allows students to revisit and solidify their comparing and ordering skills.

E1.1 sort, construct, and identify cubes, prisms, pyramids, cylinders, and cones by comparing their faces, edges, vertices, and angles
E1.2 compose and decompose various structures, and identify the two-dimensional shapes and three-dimensional objects that these structures contain
E1.3 identify congruent lengths, angles, and faces of three-dimensional objects by mentally and physically matching them, and determine if the objects are congruent
