Turn a classroom nuisance into a delightful geometry unit assessment tool! With puppetry, poems, and geoboards, students move from understanding basic shapes to sorting, describing, identifying, and demonstrating attributes of two- and three-dimensional figures.
Slide, flip, and turn students’ thinking into the world of spatial relationships and geometric design with directed inquiries in song, dance, literature, games, poetry, and history. Develop students’ understanding of symmetry by investigating lines of symmetry to uncover congruent shapes, shapes within shapes, and reflections.
