Lesson 6

Walking Around Shapes

Est. Class Sessions: 3

Developing the Lesson

Part 1. Self-Evaluation

Ask students to remove the Walking Around Shapes Practice Menu page from the Student Activity Book as you display the page. Ask them to recall the work they did in Lesson 5, Mr. Green's Giant Gumball Jamboree. Students will remember that they used patterns to complete a data table, read a data table and a point graph for information, and create a point graph.

Ask students to use the Self-Check in the table on the Walking Around Shapes Practice Menu to help them assess how they are doing with these Expectations. For each Expectation listed on the table, students should decide whether they could use some extra help (“Working On It”) or if they just need some more practice (“Getting It”). This will focus students' efforts throughout the lesson and help them target practice on their work to meet their individual needs.

Students will use the Self-Check on the Walking Around Shapes Practice Menu in the Student Activity Book to check their progress on the following Expectations:

  • Making a point graph [E6].
  • Reading a point graph [E7].
  • Reading a data table [E7].

This will prepare students to target practice on the Walking Around Triangles, Walking Around Squares Continued, and Walking Around Hexagons pages in the Student Activity Book.
