Describe Shapes
- Grade:
- 1
- Subject:
- Math
This geometry lesson covers identifying two-dimensional shapes by their attributes. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will describe the attributes of a shape that are always true and sometimes true, and then match various shapes to the correct bin. Shapes identified are triangles, rectangles, squares, circles, pentagons, and hexagons.
Find the Area of Rectilinear Shapes
- Grade:
- 3
- Subject:
- Math
This measurement and data lesson covers how to find the area of rectilinear shapes. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will split the rectilinear shape into rectangles, find the area of each rectangle, and then find the area of the rectilinear shape by adding the areas of each rectangle.
Find the Area of Rectangles Using Multiplication
- Grade:
- 3
- Subject:
- Math
This measurement and data lesson covers how to find the area of rectangles using multiplication. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will identify the side lengths or a rectangle, and then multiply to find the area and interpret the result.
Categorize Quadrilaterals
- Grade:
- 3
- Subject:
- Math
This geometry lesson covers the recognition of quadrilateral shapes. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students will learn the differences between a rectangle, rhombus, and square, and will categorize shapes as one of the three types of quadrilaterals or not a quadrilateral.
Find the Perimeter of a Rectangle
- Grade:
- 4
- Subject:
- Math
This measurement and geometry lesson focuses on finding the perimeter of a rectangle. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the problem to find the rectangle's length and width. Then, they substitute the rectangle's length and width into the perimeter formula and compute the perimeter. Finally, they label the answer with the correct unit of measurement. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.
