Geometric Probability “chance” Written as a percent between 0% and 100% or a decimal between 0 and 1. Area of “shaded” region Area of entire region Geometric.
A polygon is a closed figure made by joining line segments, where each line segment intersects exactly two others. Polygons.

Pattern Blocks Wolvyn Henriques 09/27/2007

Agenda – W5H What are Pattern Blocks? Who can use them? When Can you use them? Where can you use them? Why Use them? How Can you use Pattern Blocks

What are Pattern Blocks 6 x Hexagon 10 x Trapezoid 12 x Triangles 10 x Rhombus 8 x small rhombus 4 x squares

Who can use them? Pairs Groups Individuals

Where can you use them? Polygons & Problem Solving Patterns & Tessellations Perimeter Area Fraction Symmetry & motion geometry

Why Use them? Children don’t absorb ideas as the teacher presents Children are creators of their own knowledge

Equivalent Fractions Pattern Block Learning Object Lets watch a movie! Let us do the example

Are the Any Questions You'll never go back to teaching fractions the old way!
