What's Going On? December 9th through December 13th

Quadrilaterals on the Coordinate Plane

This week we will work on applying our knowledge of quadrilaterals to the coordinate plane.  That means, we will examine the coordinates of a quadrilateral and use various algebra formulas to classify the shape.  Students will use our previously applied slope, midpoint, and distance formulas to determine the measures of angles and side lengths for our figure.  Then, based on the characteristics we have learned about for the different types of quadrilaterals, students will be able to classify the shape.  We will end the week with a "Quadrilaterals Detectives in Training" formative assessment where students will work in groups to graph
different shapes based on the characteristics.  Then the groups will swap projects and use their "detective skills" in order to determine the type of shape graphed.
