After students identify a correct set of points for the translation, they look for patterns between the pairs of coordinates that describe the translation. Geometry and spatial reasoning. The student uses geometry to model and describe the physical world. Clarifying Activity Given the front, top, and side views of a solid, students use cubes to build all possible models that fit these views, then sketch the models on isometric dot paper. The student uses geometry to model and describe the physical world.
Students test each paper net by cutting it out and wrapping it around the box.
Students test the nets made from Polydrons by folding them to make the rectangular prism. Geometry and spatial reasoning. The student uses geometry to model and describe the physical world. Clarifying Activity Students explore the rigidity of a triangle and its uses in construction. Clarifying Activity Students use the characteristic of congruent diagonals in rectangles to test for square corners in designing a rectangular structure.
