Assessment RIOT: Hold out pictures of shapes and have students help you
recognize the terms they learned in two-dimensional figures. (Look for
pictures at bottom) Handing them each a topic and then they explain what
they learned about it. No one words. Pretend I dont know it, explain it to
me.

Standard: CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.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.
Objective: The students will be able to demonstrate their ability to recognize
the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines or the presence or
absence of angles of a specified size in two dimensional figures. They will be
able to recognize right triangles.
Attention Getter: Review previous terms learned. Show picture then ask
what it is.
Teach/Model:
1. Talk about Trapezoids. A trapezoid has a pair of parallel sides. Ask are
these lines parallel or are these lines parallel? (Ask them what a pair is
to make they know)
Independent Practice
1. Give everyone a different trapezoid then explain how all of them are a
trapezoid according to the rules.
Teach/Model:
1. Teach the difference between squares and rectangles. With squares,
sides have equal length, and every interior angle is a right angle (90).
Rectangles also have right angles, 4-sided flat shape with straight
sides where all interior angles are right angles (90). Also opposite
sides are parallel and of equal length. A square is a special rectangle
because all sides are equal.
Independent Practice
1. Have students repeat back to you what you just said.
Independent Practice (first): Hand each student a different parallelogram.
How many pairs of parallelogram have? Remind them what pair means.
Teach/Model (second):
1. Teach rules about parallelograms. Opposite sides are parallel, opposite
sides are equal in length, opposite angles are equal (angles "a" are the
same, and angles "b" are the same), and angles "a" and "b" add up to
180, so they are supplementary angles.
2. See if they can find the ones that are not parallelograms
Assessment RIOT: Will hold up the different shapes as review to see if they
remember the rules about each shape that were taught.

Standard: CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.G.A.3
First state that they need to raise their hand to answer.
Ask students what they see when they look into a mirror.
Allow for responses and discussion.
Ask students if a body was cut down the middle (vertically), would the right
half be the same as the left half. Why or why not?
Allow for responses and discussion.
Introduce Symmetry to the students. Tell students the human body is
mostly symmetric, though not exact.
Ask students now: Why is the body not perfectly symmetric?
Display the image of the butterfly.
Ask the class to share some things they notice about the image. Some
guiding questions you could ask are: What are the colors of the butterfly's
wings? How are the wings shaped?
Once students touch on the idea that the wings match in some way,
introduce the word "symmetry." Explain that something has symmetry if it
can be split into two mirror-image halves. For example, a butterfly is
symmetrical because you can fold a picture of it in half and see that both
sides match.
Be sure students understand that some of the shapes may be folded more
than one time to determine a line of symmetry. (You may choose to make
extra copies of the pages as some of the shapes may become overly folded
by the students.)
(Print out shapes to have them find symmetry)
http://www.mathsisfun.com/activity/shapes-symmetry.html
^have circle also printed out
Recognize a line of symmetry for a two-dimensional figure as a line across
the figure such that the figure can be folded along the line into matching
parts. Identify line-symmetric figures and draw lines of symmetry.
Teach/Model:
1. Ask what is a line of symmetry? Then explain to students, One half
is the reflection of the other half. The "Line of Symmetry" (shown here
in white) is the imaginary line where you could fold the image and
have both halves match exactly.
2. Ask what is asymmetry (no lines of symmetry) give examples of
those.
Independent Practice
1. Hand everyone different shapes and have them fold them to see if
their shapes have symmetry. Have them tell you if their shapes were
symmetrical or not.
2. Hand out shapes that can have multiple lines of symmetry and have
them tell you how many lines of symmetry they have. Students will
each receive a shape that they fold to figure out how many lines of
symmetry there are.
3. Ask, How many lines of symmetry does a circle have? Explain that
its infinite.
Standard: CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.G.A.2
Teach/Model:
Divide students into small groups and give each a few images of
trapezoids. Ask them to list features such as number of sides or
angles. Discuss how each shape is similar and different.
Tell students they will be learning about trapezoids. Label your chart
paper 'Trapezoid'
Independent Practice
Teach/Model:
Write the definition for trapezoid on your chart paper and allow
students to sketch some triangles and 'chop off' the tops to create
trapezoids. Show students a video on trapezoids saved to computer.
Ask students to share what they noticed makes a trapezoid different
from other shapes.
Independent Practice:
Give the students straws and have the students make trapezoids out
of straws. Provide scissors and tape. Then have each group of students
explain why their shape made out of straws is a trapezoid.
Assessment
Assessment will be through observation and when the groups answer
questions about trapezoids. The students charts they fill out will be
collected.
Fourth Grade Geometry Lesson-Day 5
Name: Lindsay Crandall
Standard: CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.4.G.A.2
Topic: Learning characteristics of quadrilaterals
Objective: The students will learn the characteristics of quadrilaterals
more in depth.
Teach/Model:
Independent Practice
On another sheet of paper they will need to make a chart and list the
characteristics of each quadrilateral that they are assigned to
compare. Then they need to draw a line connecting the characteristics
that are the same in both lists. Explain to them that the ones
connected will be the characteristics that they will place in the middle
section of the Venn diagram. They will complete their Venn diagram by
putting the characteristics that are specific to each quadrilateral in the
diagram and then listing the characteristics that they have in common
in the center section.
Teach/Model:
Assessment
Students will draw various examples of quadrilaterals. Then they will
list all of the labels possible for each quadrilateral.
Teach/Model:
Discuss the meaning of a quadrilateral and name the different
types. Divide the students into groups of four. Give each group a
poster with a Venn diagram on it
Independent Practice
On another sheet of paper they will need to make a chart and
list the characteristics of each quadrilateral that they are assigned to
compare. Then they need to draw a line connecting the characteristics
that are the same in both lists. Explain to them that the ones

section of the Venn diagram. They will complete their Venn diagram by
putting the characteristics that are specific to each quadrilateral in the
diagram and then listing the characteristics that they have in common
in the center section.
Teach/Model:
When students are finished go over their discoveries as a class
discussing these questions:
Can a shape ever fit in more than one category?
yes, for example: a square is also a rectangle or a rhombus, but
a rhombus or rectangle is not always a square; rectangle, square and
a rhombus are all parallelograms
Which figure is not a parallelogram?
Trapezoid, because parallelograms have two pairs of equal sides
and a trapezoid only has one pair
What is the difference between a rhombus and parallelogram?
Rhombus has four equal sides while a parallelogram has two
pairs of equal sides. A parallelogram can be a rhombus but not always,
while a rhombus is always a parallelogram.
Assessment
Students will draw various examples of quadrilaterals. Then they
will list all of the labels possible for each quadrilateral.
