Geometry Basics - Practice

Unit 17

This math unit begins by introducing students to the concept of congruence and similarity among 2D shapes, where they initially learn to identify and distinguish these properties through image comparisons and property descriptions. As students progress, they practice these skills in various contexts including matching descriptions to images and confirming geometric properties through true/false assessments. The unit then extends into the study of polygons, where students learn to recognize and name polygons based on the number of sides, and further classify them as regular or irregular based on symmetry and equal sides. The unit advances into exploring 3D shapes, starting with identifying simple 3D forms like spheres and cubes, progressing to more complex geometric forms such as various types of prisms and pyramids. Finally, the unit covers basic geometric constructs including lines, segments, and rays, enhancing foundational geometry knowledge essential for understanding both 2D and 3D shapes. Throughout, the unit involves increasingly complex geometric concepts, preparing students for a comprehensive understanding of geometry basics.more
