Big Ideas
- Shapes can be created and identified using their defining characteristics, such as the number of sides and vertices.
- Understanding attributes allows us to classify, compare, and construct a variety of two-dimensional shapes.
Essential Questions
- How can we describe a two-dimensional shape using its sides and vertices?
- In what ways can two-dimensional shapes be similar or different?
- How can you create a shape if you know its attributes?
- Why are the number of sides and vertices important when describing shapes?
- How do the attributes of a shape help us identify or classify it?
