Shape and Space Strand
At the end of this unit, students need to be able to:
- identify angles in my environment.
- classify angles by their size (acute, right, obtuse, straight, and reflex).
- estimate the measure of angles using 45˚, 90˚, and 180˚ as reference angles.
- measure angles using a protractor.
- draw and label angles using a protractor when given the measure.
- find the sum of interior angles in triangles (180˚).
- find the sum of interior angles in quadrilaterals (360˚).
- construct and compare the following triangles in varying positions:
*scalene
*isosceles
*equilateral
*right
*obtuse
*acute
- describe and compare the sides and angles of regular polygons.
- describe and compare the sides and angles of irregular polygons.
- develop and apply a formula for finding the:
*Perimeter of polygons
*Area of rectangles
*Volume of rectangular prisms
- draw and describe a translation of a 2-D shape.
- draw and describe a rotation of a 2-D shape.
- draw and describe a reflection of a 2-D shape.
- identify and describe a combination of transformations on a 2-D shape.
- identify and plot points in the first quadrant of a Cartesian plane using whole number ordered pairs.
- perform and describe single transformations of a 2-D shape in the first quadrant of a Cartesian plane.
