Distinguish two- or three-dimensional shapes based upon their attributes (i.e., number of sides, equal or different lengths of sides, number of faces, and number of corners).

Clarifications:

Essential Understandings

Concrete:

  • Recognize flat objects as two-dimensional and objects with length, height, and width as three-dimensional objects.
  • Count the number of sides of a two-dimensional shape manipulative and name the shape based on the number of sides.
  • Count the angles of two-dimensional shape manipulative and name the shape based on the number of angles.
  • Count the number of faces of a three-dimensional shape manipulative and name the shape based on the number of faces.
  • Count the corners (vertices) of a three-dimensional shape manipulative and name the shape based on the number of corners (vertices).
Representation:
  • Given a visual representation of two-dimensional shapes, count the number of sides and name the shape based on the number of sides.
  • Given a visual representation of two-dimensional shapes, count the number of angles and name the shape based on the number of angles.
  • Given a visual representation of a three-dimensional shape, count the number of faces and name the shape based on the number of faces.
  • Given a visual representation of a three-dimensional shape, count the corners (vertices) and name the shape based on the number of corners (vertices).
  • Understand the following concepts and vocabulary of two-dimensional, three-dimensional, corners, vertices, faces, shape names, angles, and sides.

Date Adopted or Revised: 06/14 Cluster: Reason with shapes and their attributes. (Additional Cluster)

Clusters should not be sorted from Major to Supporting and then taught in that order. To do so would strip the coherence of the mathematical ideas and miss the opportunity to enhance the major work of the grade with the supporting clusters.
