Learning Targets
- I can recognize shapes like rhombuses, parallelograms, trapezoids, rectangles, and squares as examples of quadrilaterals. #dok1
- I can identify attributes that define different types of quadrilaterals. #dok1
- I can use attributes to decide if a shape is a rhombus, parallelogram, trapezoid, rectangle, or square. #dok2
- I can classify quadrilaterals by their attributes. #dok2
- I can draw quadrilaterals that do not belong to any of these subcategories. #dok2
Big Ideas
- Quadrilaterals can be classified and recognized based on their attributes.
- Not all quadrilaterals fit perfectly into common subcategories like rectangles or rhombuses.
Essential Questions
- What attributes help us classify a quadrilateral as a rhombus, parallelogram, trapezoid, rectangle, or square?
- How can we identify if a shape is a quadrilateral or not?
- How do we recognize and classify quadrilaterals that do not fit into specific subcategories?
- Why is it important to understand the differences among quadrilaterals?
- Can two shapes be quadrilaterals but belong to different categories? Why or why not?
