Let's solve a mystery! We will spend the week working together to solve a math mystery while we solve math problems. Each day we will complete a new piece of the puzzle to find a clue. Daily activities will include the following: ~ Listen to me as I explain the mathematical element of the day ~ Watch a short slideshow illustrating the ideas I explain ~ Work together to solve problems ~ Use some of class time to complete individual problems to check for understanding Subjects studied will include: ~ Day 1: Identify lines, angles, and shapes ~ Day 2: Find the perimeter of regular and irregular shapes ~ Day 3: Use multiplication to find area of squares and rectangles ~ Day 4: Estimate angle measurements ~ Day 5: Use area and perimeter to determine costs (real-life application problems)
Learning Goals
Students will review or learn elements of geometry that should be known by the end of fourth grade.
