1. Geometric Properties & Transformations Days 88-107 (19 days)
Common Core Objective:
7.G.2 Draw (freehand, with ruler and protractor, and with technology) geometric shapes with given conditions. Focus on constructing triangles from three measures of angles or sides, noticing when the conditions determine a unique triangle, more than one triangle, or no triangle.
8.G.1 Verify experimentally the properties of rotations, reflections, and translations:
a. Lines are taken to lines, and line segments to line segments of the same length.
b. Angles are taken to angles of the same measure.
c. Parallel lines are taken to parallel lines.
8.G.2 Understand that a two dimensional figure is congruent to another if the second can be obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, and translations; given two congruent figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the congruence between them.
8.G.3 Describe the effect of dilations, translations, rotations, and reflections on two-dimensional figures using coordinates.
8.G.4 Understand that a two-dimensional figure is similar to another if the second can be obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, translations, and dilations; given two similar two dimensional figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the similarity between them.
8.G.5 Use informal arguments to establish facts about the angle sum and exterior angle of triangles, about the angles created when parallel lines are cut by a transversal, and the angle-angle criterion for similarity of triangles. For example, arrange three copies of the same triangle so that the sum of the three angles appears to form a line, and give an argument in terms of transversals why this is so.

8. Review of Angles
Objective: You will use khan academy and your previous knowledge to compete a worksheet with justifications. DON’T FORGET TO BE WORKING ON YOUR FLASH CARDS. QUIZ TOMORROW
Warm-up: One of the measures of the remote interior angles of a triangle is 50°. If the exterior angle measures 120°, what is the measure of the other remote interior angle? A. 50° B. 120° C. 70° D. 170° CW: Review Homework and make corrections in class to be turned in for a class work grade. HW: Complete Practice WKSH – Angles and Triangles
Warm-up is C

9. Dilations
Objective: You will demonstrate your understanding of scale factor used in a coordinate plane and perform dilations on given figures in a coordinate plane by completing notes and homework. Vocabulary: Dilations - a point or figure that is created by applying a scale factor to the original point(s)-this may increase or decrease the figure in size Prime coordinates - the coordinates that come from applying a scale factor of original points
Warm-up: What is the scale factor used if a 7 in plastic alligator represents a real alligator that is 175 inches long? CW: Watch video and complete notes: HW: Worksheet D98 Dilations
Stop at 4:40

10. Transformations
Objective: You will describe four types of TRANSFORMATIONS and perform translations and describe the effects on the coordinates. CW: Draw and label the coordinate plan, view transformations PPT’s, work through notes to develop rules for transformations. HW: WKSH - Transformations
Warm-up: Vocabulary – Transformation - when a figure or point is changed in size and position on a coordinate plane rigid transformation - when a figure changes position on the coordinate plane but maintains the same size and shape Translation - a transformation that moves points right-left or up-down or a combination of these (slide) Reflection - a transformation that flips a figure over a given line of reflection-each point moves an equal distance from the line of reflection but on the opposite side Rotation - a transformation where a given figure rotates around a given point
There are several PPT on Transformations, watch all while students develop their own rules
HW: to be completed over several days during CASE21 testing
