Sample Learning Goals
- Predict how moving a side or corner will change or maintain the current named shape.
- Determine the similarities and differences between quadrilaterals by looking at their side, angle, and diagonal measures and understand that the shared attributes can define a larger category.
- Classify quadrilaterals based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines, or the presence or absence of equal or right angles.
- Classify quadrilaterals in a hierarchy based on shared geometric properties.

Classify two-dimensional figures in a hierarchy based on properties.5.G.B.3
Understand that attributes belonging to a category of two-dimensional figures also belong to all subcategories of that category. For example, all rectangles have four right angles and squares are rectangles, so all squares have four right angles.4.G.A.3
Recognize a line of symmetry for a two-dimensional figure as a line across the figure such that the figure can be folded along the line into matching parts. Identify line-symmetric figures and draw lines of symmetry.4.G.A.2
Classify two-dimensional figures based on the presence or absence of parallel or perpendicular lines, or the presence or absence of angles of a specified size. Recognize right triangles as a category, and identify right triangles.3.G.A.1
Understand that shapes in different categories (e.g., rhombuses, rectangles, and others) may share attributes (e.g., having four sides), and that the shared attributes can define a larger category (e.g., quadrilaterals). Recognize rhombuses, rectangles, and squares as examples of quadrilaterals, and draw examples of quadrilaterals that do not belong to any of these subcategories.K.G.A.2
Correctly name shapes regardless of their orientations or overall size.
