Point- represents a location
Line- made up of points and has no thickness or width, extends infinitely at both ends (cannot be measured)
Collinear- points on the same line
Plane- flat surface made from points that has no depth and extends in all directions infinitely
Coplanar- points or lines on the same plane
Space- boundless, 3-D set of all points that contains lines and planes

 Step 1- fold the construction paper in half both by width and length (hamburger and hotdog)
 Step 2- Unfold the paper and hold width wise, fold in the ends until they meet at the center crease
 Step 3- Cut the folded flaps along the crease so that there are now 4 flaps

 Label the outside of the flap with the lesson number and title.
 Inside the flap create a grid with 7 columns and 4 rows.

Copy the notes into the foldable, then draw and label your own examples based on the information in the chart.
