4. October 2011, Morehead City Middle School, 7th grade math class. Audience Write a proportion to model a word problem. Solve problems using percent proportion or equivalent ratios. Use proportions to express relationships between corresponding parts of similar figures. Use proportional reasoning to solve problems related to similar and congruent polygons. Identify proportional parts of similar figures using rulers and protractors. Behavior Complete study guide through lecture, discussion, videos, and Internet research, viewing photographs related to architecture, making projects from triangles in architecture, doing this in groups of three. Condition Students will be able to correctly identify and classify at least 8 of the 10 triangles found throughout the pictures. Degree

5. Video The ABC’s of ArchitectureThe ABC’s of Architecture PowerPoint Presentation Definitions and examples of triangles and related vocabulary. Use the PowerPoint presentation as an introduction to the lesson plan and as a review for standardized test preparation. Study Guide Triangles in Architecture. ABC’s of Architecture Movie Guide Six application problems based on lecture, study guide, Internet research, and two video clips.
