W HAT ’ S I MPORTANT IN U NIT 4? Identifying and describing properties of two- dimensional shapes in more precise ways using properties that are shared rather than the appearances of individual shapes. Partition shapes into equal shares of halves, thirds, fourths, sixths, and eighths. Find the perimeter of objects (ex. Finding missing side lengths, different perimeters given fixed area) Understanding difference between area and perimeter

I DENTIFYING S HAPES IN M ORE P RECISE WAYS …W HAT DOES “M ORE P RECISE ” MEAN ? Each level describes the thinking process used in geometric context. Information taken from: Teaching Student-Centered Mathematics, 2 nd Edition written by John A. Van de Walle, et. al Elementary Students are in Level 0-1
11
P ARTITIONING S HAPES INTO EQUAL SHARES Students are exploring region models other than the typical circle or rectangle When partitioning a whole shape into parts, it is important to understand that the size of the parts must be equal, but the shape of the parts do not have to be the same.
12
D IFFERENTIATING BETWEEN A REA AND P ERIMETER Van de Walle states that students struggle with knowing the difference between perimeter and area. The perimeter tasks in this unit are designed to help students discover this difference by connecting perimeter of polygons to measurement.
13
The Relationship between Area and Perimeter I N MY C LASSROOM …
14
A REAS OF C ONCERN Students should classify shapes by attributes and by drawing shapes that fit specific categories. Students should be able to develop a conceptual understanding of perimeter. Students who develop this understanding will be less likely to confuse area and perimeter.

R ESOURCES Lesson for the teacher to learn more about teaching Geometry to elementary students. The lesson includes ideas for lessons, video of classrooms, etc. http://www.learner.org/courses/learningmath/geom etry/session10/index35.html http://www.learner.org/courses/learningmath/geom etry/session10/index35.html Wikispace- all the math goodness you need (except for the frameworks) is kept on the math wikispace provided by the GaDOE. http://ccgpsmathematicsk- 5.wikispaces.com/http://ccgpsmathematicsk- 5.wikispaces.com/ Please sign up for the Mathematics K-5 list serve- join-mathematics-k-5@list.doe.k12.ga.us join-mathematics-k-5@list.doe.k12.ga.us Van De Walle- fresh off the press there is a new edition that is aligned to CCSS One of the best websites out there! http://www.illustrativemathematics.org/standards/k8
