Teacher Candidate:

Samantha Reed

Date: Thursday 3/6/14 Coop. Initials Grade Level 4th Section

Cooperating Teacher: Jessica Mack Group Size: 25 Allotted Time 11:50-12:40 Math-Geometry Unit Test

Subject or Topic:

STANDARD: C.2.3.4.A.2 Classify two dimensional figures by properties of their lines and angles. CC.2.3.4.A.1 Draw lines and angles and identify these in two dimensional figures. CC.2.3.4.A.3 Recognize symmetric shapes and draw lines of symmetry.

I. Performance Objectives (Learning Outcomes): The students will understand geometric concepts through application. II. Instructional Materials -Test Subject Matter/Content (prerequisite skills, key vocabulary, big idea). A. Prerequisite skills 1. The students must have a deep understanding of the concepts of geometry. B. Key Vocabulary Face: the flat surface of a solid. Edge: The line segment where two faces of a solid meet. Vertex: The point where one or more edges meet. Plane figure: a figure that lies on a flat surface. Polygon: a closed plane figure made of line segments. Equilateral: all sides equal Isosceles: at least two side equal in length Scalene: no equal sides Right angle: a square corner Acute angle: less than a right angle

Obtuse angle: greater than a right angle but less than a straight line. Quadrilateral: a polygon with 4 sides. Parallelogram: two pairs of opposite parallel sides. Square: All sides are the same length. There are four right angles. Rectangle: Opposite sides are parallel and the same length. Rhombus: There are two pairs of parallel sides; all sides are the same length. Trapezoid: There is only one pair of parallel sides. Line: a straight path that goes on forever in both directions. Line Segment: part of a line with two end points. Ray: a line with one endpoint and continues on forever in one direction. Intersecting Lines: lines that intersect at an angle that is not a right angle. Parallel lines: lines that never intersect. Perpendicular lines: lines that intersect at right angles. Congruent: having the same size and shape Flip: to turn a figure over Turn: to rotate a figure Slide: to move a figure in one direction Similar: having the same shape. Line of symmetry: line on which a figure can be folded so that both halves are congruent. Word problem: a real life problem presented in paragraph form. Perimeter: The length around an object. Area: The amount inside of a two dimensional object. Volume: number of cubic units needed to fill a solid. C. Big Idea: The use and application of Geometry. III. Implementation A. Introduction 1. Tell the students to clear off their desks and have someone get out the dividers. B. Development 1. Hand out the tests and tell the students not to get started but just to put their name on it. 2. Read through all of the directions on the test and explain each problem so that it is clear. 3. Tell the students when they are finished to put their test into the math bin and to work on their Dream House project, or something else quietly when they are finished. C. Closure 1. Collect the tests and have students return their dividers. D. Accommodations/Differentiation 1. Some students take the test in another room to have the test read to them.

E. Assessment/Evaluation Plan 1. Formative-Walk around as the test is being taken and answer questions. 2. Summative-The test will be graded.
