Identify: intersecting lines, perpendicular lines, and parallel lines on the shapes. Answer: 1. On Shape 7, how do you know that line segment BC and line segment ED are not parallel? 2. Does Shape 10 have a pair of perpendicular line segments and? Discuss: 1. Can two lines be both intersecting lines and perpendicular lines? 2. Can two lines be both perpendicular and parallel to each other? 3. Why is it important to think about a line segment as being part of a line that extends forever in both directions? 4. How can you monitor whether you have accurately identified relationships between line segments?

IDENTIFY AND DRAW PERPENDICULAR AND

PARALLEL LINE SEGMENTS Virtual Geoboard Create a variety of quadrilaterals on your board to share with the class. Discuss: Which shapes contain examples of parallel and perpendicular line segments? Create quadrilaterals with the following attributes, and record shape drawings on Geoboard Dot Paper:

two pairs of parallel sides one pair of parallel sides one pair of perpendicular sides

IDENTIFY AND DRAW PERPENDICULAR AND

PARALLEL LINE SEGMENTS

Using the pattern blocks, find shapes with examples of parallel and perpendicular line segments. Answer:
Which pattern blocks have sides that are parallel? Which pattern blocks are parallelograms and why? Which pattern blocks have sides that are perpendicular and why? Are there any pattern blocks that do not contain parallel or perpendicular lines?

Discuss the presence of parallel and perpendicular sides in other familiar shapes. Answer: How does thinking about the properties of shapes help you identify perpendicular and parallel line segments?

IDENTIFY AND DRAW LINES OF SYMMETRY

Visualize what will happen when a square is folded in half. Identify the lines of symmetry of this square. Answer:

How do you know you have identified all the lines of symmetry on the square? Do all quadrilaterals have lines of symmetry?

IDENTIFY AND DRAW LINES OF SYMMETRY

Cut out the shapes after identifying the lines of symmetry in order to verify whether their predictions are accurate.

IDENTIFY AND DRAW LINES OF SYMMETRY

Answer:

What did you notice about the first figure? What is different about the two pentagons? How does folding help you verify your prediction about a figures line of symmetry?

EXPLAIN CONCEPTS OF ANGLE AND ANGLE MEASUREMENT CLASSIFY AND RECORD ANGLES
Angles and Angle Measurements Angles and Angle Measurements Notes Create various angles based on angle categories (for example - acute, obtuse, straight, right). Record and label the measures of your angles on Geoboard Dot Paper using a straightedge. Watch: Why Learn About Angles?

EXPLAIN CONCEPTS OF ANGLE AND ANGLE MEASUREMENT CLASSIFY AND RECORD ANGLES
Answer o How do you know that you have drawn an acute angle? o How do you know the angle you recorded measures between 0 and 45? o How do you know the angle you recorded is greater than a straight angle?

o How do understandings about fractions and measurement units help you understand angles and angle measurement?
