Unit Overview Content Area: Math Unit Title: Two-dimensional figures and their properties Unit: 8 Target Course/Grade Level: Fifth Grade Timeline: 3 weeks Unit Summary: Students will understand that geometric properties include properties of sides, angles, and symmetry. Students will understand the properties of figures and how they can be classified. Primary interdisciplinary connections: Language Arts and Technology 9.1 21st-Centuries Life & Career Skills Standard 9.1 All students will demonstrate the creative, critical thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving skills needed to function successfully as both global citizens and workers in diverse ethnic and organizational cultures. Strand: A. Critical Thinking and Problem Solving B. Creativity and Innovation C. Collaboration, Teamwork and Leadership Content Statement: 9.1.8: A The ability to recognize a problem and apply critical thinking skills and problem solving skills to solve the problem is a lifelong skill that develops over time. 9.1.8: C Collaboration and team work enable individuals or groups to achieve common goals with greater efficiency. Leadership abilities develop over time through participation in group and or teams that that are engaged in challenging or competitive activities. 9.1.8: B Gathering and Evaluating knowledge and information from a variety of sources, including global perspective, fosters creativity and innovative thinking. st 21 Century themes and skills: Critical Thinking and Problem Solving, Collaboration, Teamwork and Leadership, Creativity and Innovation Mathematical Practices: 5.MP.1 Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. 5.MP.2 Reason abstractly and quantitatively. 5.MP.3 Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. 5.MP.4 Model with mathematics. 5.MP.5 Use appropriate tools strategically. 5.MP.6 Attend to precision. 5.MP.7 Look for and make use of structure. 5.MP.8 Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. Learning Targets Domain: Geometry Cluster: Classify two-dimensional figures into categories bases on their properties. Standard # Standards 5.G.3 Understand that attributes belonging to a category of two-dimensional figures also belong to all subcategories of that category. For example, all rectangles have four right angles and squares are rectangles, so all squares have four right angles. 5.G.4 Classify two-dimensional figures in a hierarchy based on properties. 9.1.8.A.1 Develop strategies to reinforce positive attitudes and productive behaviors that impact critical thinking and problem-solving skills. 9.1.8.A.2 Implement problem-solving strategies to solve a problem in school or the community. 9.1.8.B.2 Assess data gathered to solve problems for which there are varying perspective (e.g., cross cultural, gender specific, generational, etc.) and determine how the data can best be used to design the multiple solutions. 9.1.8.C.1 Determine an individual’s responsibility for personal actions and contributions to group activities. 9.1.8.C.2 Demonstrate the use of compromise, consensus and community building strategies for carrying out different task, assignments and projects. 9.1.8.C.3 Model leadership skills during classroom and extracurricular activities. Unit Essential Questions How can spatial relationships be described by careful use of geometric language? Unit Enduring Understandings Geometric properties can be used to construct geometric figures. Geometric relationships provide a means to make sense of a variety of phenomena. Unit Learning Targets Students will ... Identify, describe, classify and compare the properties of two-dimensional polygons. Recognize regular polygons and irregular polygons. Compare/contrast regular polygons to irregular polygons. Evidence of Learning Summative Assessment Make a hierarchy of given polygons. Sort polygons with given properties. Given a regular and an irregular polygon, compare and contrast each using attributes and terms. .

Geometry Sketchpad Opportunities for Differentiation: Decelerate: Limit figures that can have their line of symmetry drawn in. Accelerated: Students will look at more complex figures to determine their lines of symmetry. Students will use the following formula to determine the total degrees contained within a figure and what each of those angles would be in a regular polygon. Degrees in a polygon = (x - 2)(180), where x is the number of sides. Teacher Notes: Students will need to learn how to use a protractor.
