Lesson 8

Getting to Know Shapes

Est. Class Sessions: 1

Summarizing the Lesson

Direct students to the Think about Shapes pages in the Student Activity Book. Students will identify, describe, and compare and contrast the trapezoid and the hexagon. Each student will need a small set of pattern block shapes. Assign the questions on the page for students to complete individually.

Use the Think about Shapes pages and the Feedback Box in the Student Activity Book to assess students' abilities to identify, describe, and sort shapes based on their attributes (e.g., number of sides, number of angles) [E1].
