Assessments#
Identify types of polygons in the room,
in nature, around time, etc.
Check students’ understanding of
names for different polygons.
Provide students with various triangles,
a large one on each 8.5 by 11 sheet, and
have them measure the sum of the
angles. Compare answers.
Use the fact that sum of measures of
angles of a triangle is 180 and a
polygon can be divided into triangles, to
determine the sum of angles of any
polygon. Look for pattern.

Draw a basic parallelogram according
to directions on page 309. Have
students work in pairs and share their
measurements with each other.
Talk about the least amount of
information you would need to know to
say that a quadrilateral was definitely a
parallelogram.
