Project Overview
Project Title
Classifying Quadrilaterals Glog
Project Description
Students will classify quadrilaterals by side and angle characteristics to determine the differences. They
will present material with a Glog and use an interactive online site to explore quadrilateral
characteristics. Students will be assessed on their Glog and knowledge of classifying quadrilaterals by
rubric.
Subject Area and Grade Level
Math 5th grade
Approximate Time Needed
2 50 min. class periods
Targeted Content Standards and Benchmarks
5.G.3. Understand that attributes belonging to a category of two-dimensional figures also belong to all subcategories of
that category. For example, all rectangles have four right angles and squares are rectangles, so all squares have four
right angles.
Student Objectives/Learning Outcomes
Student Objectives: recognize, explore, and classify the properties of and different types of
quadrilaterals.
