10 Day Unit Teaches basic geometry terms and concepts to 8th grade students Integrates technology in a fun way Taught in 8th grade classroom Ages 13 to 14 Should be briefly introduced Review and advance knowledge Classroom includes wide range of learners M.O.8.3.1 Justify the relationships among corresponding, alternate interior, alternate exterior and vertical angles when parallel lines are cut by a transversal using models, pencil/paper, and technology. M.O.8.3.2 Classify polyhedrons according to the number and shape of faces; use inductive reasoning to determine the relationship between vertices, faces and edges (edges + 2 = faces + vertices). M.O.8.3.3 Identify, apply, and construct perpendicular and angle bisectors with and without technology given a real-world situation. M.O.8.3.4 Create geometric patterns including tiling, art design, tessellations and scaling using transformations (rotations, reflections, translations) and predict results of combining, subdividing, and changing shapes of plane figures and solids. M.O.8.3.5 Create scale models of similar figures using ratio, proportion with pencil/paper and technology and determine scale factor M.O.8.3.6 Make and test a conjecture concerning regular polygons, the cross section of a solid such as a cylinder, cone, and pyramid, the intersection of two or more geometric figures in the plane (e.g., intersection of a circle and a line), and justify the results. 21C.O.5-8.2.TT3 Student uses multiple technology tools for gathering information in order to solve problems, make informed decisions, and present and justify the solutions.
