Standards Project - Geometry

Purpose & Goal Activity:
The student will learn to use attributes to determine how objects are alike and different. The student is expected to, describe and identify an object by its attributes using informal language, compare two objects based on their attributes and sort a variety of objects including two and three-dimensional geometric figures according to their attributes and describe how the objects are sorted.
Amid this lesson, understudies will find questions in their surroundings that match a specific shape and will depict objects in view of different qualities. Understudies will likewise sort and analyze the discovered protests by their characteristics. This lesson ought to take after the underlying lesson …show more content…

(7) Geometry and measurement. The student applies mathematical process standards to directly compare measurable attributes. The student is expected to:
(A) give an example of a measurable attribute of a given object, including length, capacity, and weight; and
(B) compare two objects with a common measurable attribute to see which object has more of/less of the attribute and describe the difference.

Process Standards:
Mathematical process standards. The student uses mathematical processes to acquire and demonstrate mathematical understanding. The student is expected to:
(A) apply mathematics to problems arising in everyday life, society, and the workplace;
(B) use a problem-solving model that incorporates analysing given information, formulating a plan or strategy, determining a solution, justifying the solution, and evaluating the problem-solving process and the reasonableness of the …show more content…

What shape (2-D) best describes the object?
6. What shape (2-D) is drawn when you trace around the object?
7. Can the object roll?
8. Can the objects be stacked on top of each other?

Step 8:
Proceed to examine the contents of each of the hula-hoops using the same procedures as earlier.
When examining the rectangular prisms, students may point out that all the objects are not the same shape. Hold up a cube and another type of rectangular prism from the hula hoop. Examine and compare the attributes of each. They will have the same attributes except the square has all four sides that are the same length. This is why a square is called a “special rectangle.”

Step 9:
Closure of the lesson: Ask students who brought an example of a cone to get their objects from the hula-hoop. Then ask students who brought an object shaped like a rectangular prism/box, sphere/ball, and cylinder/can to get their objects from the hula-hoops.
This closure allows for continuing assessment by having children identify their objects by its mathematical name.

Homework:
Have students draw their favourite shape and explain why it is their favourite shape. Ask parents to record what their child

Lesson 1, finding the area of different shapes, differed greatly in classifications assigned to the task outlined in the study. Consistent with all other lesson plans in the classifications A and E located in the lower-level demands, the students’ were assigned a task that required memorization of the formula used for calculating the area of a rectangle (p. 49). Unlike the previous nine lessons, the students task of “finding different ways to find the area of different rectangular-based shapes” (p. 50) involved problem-solving skills.

Problem Solving Essay Shamyra Thompson Liberty University Summary of Author’s Position In the article “Never Say Anything a Kid Can Say”, the author Steven C. Reinhart shares how there are so many different and creative ways that teachers can teach Math in their classrooms. Reinhart also discussed in his article how he decided not to just teach Math the traditional way but tried using different teaching methods. For example, he tried using the Student-Centered, Problem Based Approach to see how it could be implemented in the classroom while teaching Math to his students. Reinhart found that the approach worked very well for his students and learned that the students enjoyed

All five of the activities were chosen in order to encourage children’s numeracy skills. The activities were based around the development of the four fundamental skills of numeracy learning. These are the ability to name and draw basic shapes and colours, able to count up to ten, begin to understand time and start to recognise patterns and routines. Monday’s activity, the Shape Art Mural, was chosen to allow four year olds to further their development for the milestone of naming and drawing basic shapes and colours. By incorporating both shapes and colours it allows for the activity to be more interesting for the kids.

(Eye - sight, Ears – sound, etc) 2) Students should be able to take an object in their environment and describe it using relevant senses. ( Pencil: Sight – Bright orange, thin like a stick; Touch – hard, smooth but brittle lead tips) 3) Students should grasp a better understanding for the importance of using sensory detail in order to better convey experiences and objects to their readers. Evidence of Learning: How will you know if your students understand your lesson? I will establish evidence of learning through two methods. First when presenting the lesson, I will ask students to identify on their own bodies which body part matches with which sense.

Part B Introduction The importance of Geometry Children need a wealth of practical and creative experiences in solving mathematical problems. Mathematics education is aimed at children being able to make connections between mathematics and daily activities; it is about acquiring basic skills, whilst forming an understanding of mathematical language and applying that language to practical situations. Mathematics also enables students to search for simple connections, patterns, structures and rules whilst describing and investigating strategies. Geometry is important as Booker, Bond, Sparrow and Swan (2010, p. 394) foresee as it allows children the prospect to engage in geometry through enquiring and investigation whilst enhancing mathematical thinking, this thinking encourages students to form connections with other key areas associated with mathematics and builds upon students abilities helping students reflect
