Class Topics: 01.31.14

In Common Core Math Six, students in 1, 3, and 4° completed the Chapter Seven Pretest - Plane Geometry.  This chapter is a review a some fifth grade concepts.  The chapter is long consisting of eleven lessons and over 50 vocabulary terms.  Quizlet will aid you a great deal in the understanding of these terms.

Students in 2° worked with reviewing an old copy of the Chapter Five Posttest in preparation for Monday's Posttest.

Today's Learning Targets: The student will be able to...

• 1, 3, and 4° - Pretest skills that have not been taught in sixth grade yet.
• identify, describe, measure, classify, and construct geometric plane figures.
• identify angle relationships. 
• use angle relationships including those formed by perpendicular lines and parallel lines with a transversal.
• find the measure of angles in polygons.
• use congruent figures and symmetry.
• recognize, describe, and show transformations and tessellations. 
• 2° -
• write a ratio to compare two different items.
• compare two ratios using a proportion.
• simplify ratios when needed.
• use dimensional analysis to solve multi-step conversions.
• identify corresponding sides for two shapes.
• calculate the missing value for a shape using a proportion.
• use scale factor to determine missing values.

For Evening Practice, the student is expected to...

• 1, 3, and 4° -
• complete Lesson 7.1 Problem Solving.
• 2° -
• complete the back side to the handout given in class.  
• work on making corrections to your pretest in preparation for Monday's posttest.
