Unit 5: Understanding Plane and Solid Figures
In this unit students will :
• further developing understandings of basic geometric figures
• identifying plane figures and solid figures based on geometric properties
• describing plane figures and solid figures according to geometric properties
• expanding the ability to see geometry in the real world
• partitioning shapes into equal shares by cutting, slicing, or dividing
• represent halves, thirds, and fourths using rectangles and circles to create fraction models
• compare fractions created through partitioning same-sized rectangular or circular wholes in different ways
• understand what an array is and how it can be used as a model for repeated addition
• organize and record data using tallies, simple tables and charts, picture graphs, and bar graphs
