GEO METRY When we learn about GEO-METRY we are learning about
measuring all the things on the Earth.
Slide 3
When you were in Kindergarten and First Grade you learned about
shapes in our world. There were: circles squares triangles and
rectangles.
Slide 4
There were: trapezoids pentagons hexagons octagons rhombus and
ovals.
Slide 5
Now we are going to look more closely at each shape. Each shape
has SIDES and ANGLES. TRI stands for 3. So a TRIangle has 3 angles
and it also has 3 sides. Each angle point has a special name. It is
called the VERTEX. VERTEX A tri cycle has 3 wheels! TRI = 3
Slide 6
Circle all the TRIangles!
Slide 7
This is a square. A square has 4 equal sides and 4 equal angles
and 4 equal vertices. What makes a square special is that all the
sides must be exactly the same. If they are not the same then we
call it a RECTANGLE!
Slide 8
Circle all the Squares.
Slide 9
Rectangles also have 4 sides and 4 angles and 4 vertices, but
the sides are NOT all the same size. Opposite sides are para ll el.
__________
Slide 10
Circle all the Rectangles.
Slide 11
Rhombus also have 4 sides, 4 angles and 4 vertices but two of
the sides are tipped over. A rhombus looks like a square or a
rectangle that someone sat on. SQUISH! rhombus Rhombus
Slide 12
Trapezoids also have 4 sides, 4 angles and 4 vertices. Two of
the sides are para ll el to each other. When lines are para ll el
it means they stay the same distance apart forever! Train tracks
are para ll el.
Slide 13
Do you see the TRAP in Trapezoid?
Slide 14
Did you know that they have a special name for all the shapes
that have 4 sides, 4 angles and 4 vertices? They are called
QUADRILATERALS! QUAD means 4. A quad runner has 4 wheels. All
quadrilaterals have 4 sides and 4 angles and 4 vertices.
Slide 15
All shapes that have 4 sides, 4 angles, and 4 vertices are
called QUADRILATERALS. REMEMBER: Any SHAPE with 4 SIDES and 4
ANGLES or 4 VERTICES is called a QUADRILATERAL.
Slide 16
A pentagon has 5 sides, 5 angles and 5 vertices. The prefix
PENT means 5. Any word with the prefix PENT has something to do
with 5. The Pentagon is located in Washington, D.C. It has 5 sides
and 5 angles and 5 vertices.
Slide 17
THE PENTAGON
Slide 18
The hexagon has 6 sides, 6 angles and 6 vertices. The prefix
HEX means 6. Anything with the prefix hex has something to do with
6.
Slide 19
Look at each shape. Circle all vertices. Put a line through
each side. I did the first one for you. TRI = 3 QUAD = 4 PENT = 5
HEX = 6
Slide 20
But there are many other shapes. Shapes with more than 3, or 4,
or 5, or even 6 sides. What about an OCTAGON? The prefix OCT means
8. So an octagon has 8 sides, 8 angles and 8 vertices. Can you
circle the vertices and put a line through each side?
Slide 21
Do all octagons have to be so perfect? NO! Any shape with 8
sides, 8 angles and 8 vertices is an Octagon! Can you find each
Octagon?
Slide 22
The shapes we have looked at are called 2-D or 2 dimensional.
That means that they are flat. If the shape is not flat than it is
3-D or 3 dimensional. This is a CUBE. A cube is not flat but it has
6 flat sides or faces. Each side has a flat square shape. A cube is
not a square but you need 6 squares to make a cube!
Slide 23
This pattern is called a net. If you fold the 6 squares you can
make the cube. When we look at a cube We can only see 3 faces, but
if you look behind and under you will count 6 faces on a cube.
Slide 24
Just like the 2-D shapes each 3-D geometric solid has the same
parts. They each have a flat surface called the face, they each
have vertices where the points come together and they each have
edges where the faces come together.
Slide 25
These are cubes. They are geometric solids. They have 6 equal
faces. They have 8 equal vertices. Count them. One is hiding They
have 12 equal edges. Count them. Three are hiding
Slide 26
There are many different 3-D geometric solids. These all have
faces, edges, and vertices. Can you name some of these?
Slide 27
This is a very fancy house. Do you see the front porch? The
roof to the porch is held up with columns. Columns go up and down.
They are VERTICAL.
Slide 28
In math lines that go up and down are called VERTICAL LINES. I
like to think of the V in Vertical as the point of the arrow. We
are going to use vertical lines to cut a rectangle into equal
sections. V
Slide 29
In math any lines that go side to side are called HORIZONTAL
ROWS. Horizontal is a really big word so we just say: ROWS! Rows go
from one side of a shape to the other. Remember the word para ll
el? Rows need to be spaced equally. Rows should be para ll el to
each other.
Slide 30
We are going to use co l umns l and rows to partition or
section off a rectangle. Lets do one together. Split this rectangle
into 2 rows and 3 columns. The rectangle was partitioned into 6
equal sections.
Lets do some more. 3 rows & 5 columns 4 rows & 3
columns 5 rows & 6 columns ____ equal sections ____ equal
sections ____ equal sections
Slide 33
Partitioning a rectangle into rows and columns is not the only
way to make equal sections in a rectangle. What about cutting the
rectangle into equal sections using triangles? We have made 4 equal
sections by slicing the rectangle from corner to corner.
Slide 34
Another way to partition a rectangle into 4 equal parts is to
think of it as a rectangular clock. Make your line from 12 oclock
down to 6 oclock and make another line from 9 oclock to 3
oclock.
Slide 35
Now you try some. Make your line from 12 to 6 and another line
from 9 to 3.
Slide 36
Of course you can always use rows and columns to partition a
rectangle into 4 equal parts. Because we made 4 equal parts we can
call each part one of four or 1/4 th. In this picture 1/4 th of the
rectangle is red. The number under the line tells us how many parts
the rectangle was cut into. The top number tells us how many of
those parts are red.
Slide 37
Can you partition each rectangle using rows and columns? Can
you shade in 1 of the 4 equal parts and write 1/4 by your
rectangle? Remember that the number under the line shows how many
pieces you cut it into and the number on top shows how many of
those parts are shaded.
Slide 38
There is one more way to partition a rectangle into 4 equal
parts. It is a little tricky! First you are going to cut your
rectangle in 2 parts. Anything that is cut into 2 equal parts is
cut in HALF. After making your line from 12 oclock to 6 oclock you
will draw a line from the top corner to 6 oclock. Now draw a line
from 12 oclock to the lower right corner.
Slide 39
Now it is your turn to practice. If you need help look at the
examples.
Slide 40
These are all different ways you can cut or partition a
rectangle into 4 equal parts.
Slide 41
You have probably helped cut a pizza into equal sections. Try
to cut this pizza into 4 equal slices or sections. 12 Think of the
pizza as a clock. Draw your line from the 12 down to the 6. Now
draw a line from the 9 to the 3. You just divided your pizza into 4
equal pieces! 6 3 9
Slide 42
Your pizza should have looked like this. Now partition this
clock into 4 equal sections.
Slide 43
Now partition or divide each circle into 4 equal sections. If
you shade 1 of the 4 sections you have shaded 1/4 or one fourth of
the parts. Shade 1/4 of each. What would you write if you shaded 2
of the 4 parts? ------ or . 4
Slide 44
Maybe you dont want to cut your pizza into 4 sections. Maybe
you only need 3 sections. How could you use the clock to make 3
equal sections?
Slide 45
Now partition or divide each circle into 3 equal sections. If
you shade 1 of the 3 sections you have shaded 1/3 or one third of
the parts. Shade 1/3 of each. What would you write if you shaded 2
of the 3 parts? ------ 3
Slide 46
When you cut something into 2 equal parts we say you cut it
into halves. If you shade 1 section then you shaded one half or of
the shape. The number under the line shows how many parts you cut
it into. The number above the line shows how many of the parts are
shaded.
Slide 47
When the number on the top of the line is the same as the
number under the line then you shaded the whole thing. 4/4 = 1
whole 3/3 = 1 whole2/2 = 1 whole
Slide 48
If I cut a pizza into 3 equal pieces and I eat all 3 pieces
then I ate the WHOLE thing! 3/3 = 1 whole
Slide 49
If I cut a pizza into 4 equal pieces and I eat all 4 pieces
then I ate the WHOLE thing! 4/4 = 1 whole
Slide 50
You can cut or partition any rectangle by using rows and
columns. We have only looked at halves, thirds, and fourths, but
you can partition a rectangle into as many parts as you want.
Instead of writing down the words rows and columns we just write
down the number of rows first with an X and then the number of
columns we want to have. So 2 rows with 5 columns would be written
2 x 5 and look like this. 2 x 5
Slide 51
This is a 2 X 5. But if you flip it over it becomes a 5 X 2.
These can be written as addition sentences. 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 10
or 5 + 5 = 10 2 5 2 5 X X
Slide 52
It is your turn to write the addition sentences to go with each
rectangle below. When you line up objects in rows and columns it is
called a rectangular ARRAY. __+__+__+__+__+__=___ __+__+__+__=___ 4
6 X6 4 X
Slide 53
Use an addition sentence to tell how many objects are in each
rectangular ARRAY.
Slide 54
ARRAYS can be fun to make. They can also help you solve math
problems. Lets try one together. Quintin has 8 chairs. He wants to
arrange them in equal rows. What are some ways that he can arrange
the chairs? There are 4 possible arrays to solve this problem. 1 X
8 = 8 or 8 X 1 = 8 4 X 2 = 8 or 2 X 4 = 8
Slide 55
These are all the ways you can arrange 16 chairs. It is easy to
make little squares in your array but if you wanted to you could
draw the little chairs. This is a 2 X 8 = 16 array.
Slide 56
Label and solve each picture array. Rows X Columns = ? ___ X
___ = ___ ____ X ____ = ____ ____ X ____ = ____
Slide 57
Label and solve each picture array. Write the addition
sentences that go with each array. 2 + 2 8 4 + 4 = 8
Slide 58
Paul makes an array with 12 tennis balls as shown below. Write
two different equations to represent his arrangement. Equation is a
fancy math word that means a math sentence with equal = signs.
