(Engage)Bell Ringer and Review. Read 1 chapter from SUMMER
OF THE MONKEYS.
(Explain)The teacher will review point, lines, planes, angles,
polygons, triangles, and quadrilaterals.
(Exploration)Teacher and students will work together to identify the
different types quadrilaterals (Use the new vocabulary words for the
different types quadrilaterals. Use the power point 7-7
(Evaluation)Students will work individually or with a partner to
review their foldable using the new vocabulary words. 6th Practice 76 and Challenge 7-7, and 7th Practice 7-7 and Challenge 7-7.
(Extension) Students will use Study Island, Success Maker, and
Accelerated math for review and practice.
(Engage) Bell Ringer and discuss the types of quadrilaterals. Read 1
chapter from SUMMER OF THE MONKEYS.
(Explain) The teacher will introduce polygons and the angles in a
polygon.
(Exploration) Teacher and students will work together to identify
polygons as regular or irregular. Introduce the new vocabulary and
power point 7-8 to introduce polygons.
(Evaluation) Students will work with a partner or individually to
make a chart with regular and irregular polygons and will determine
how many degrees are in each polygon. 6th Text pp. 352-355 and 7th
Text pp. 382-385.
(Extension Students will use Study Island, Success Maker, and
Accelerated math for review and practice.

chapter from SUMMER OF THE MONKEYS.
(Explain) The teacher will review quadrilaterals and polygons and the
angles in a polygon.
(Exploration) Teacher and students will review polygons as regular
or irregular and will practice finding the degrees within a polygon.
(Evaluation) Students will work with a partner or individually to
practice naming quadrilaterals and polygons using their notes from the
first of the week. 6th Practice 7-7 and Challenge 7-7 and 7th Practice
7-8 and Challenge 7-7(using road signs).
