Preparation
Lesson Narrative
In a previous section, students identified and named shapes in the environment, including shapes in different orientations. In this lesson, students use pattern blocks to figure out which shapes are the same. Students may analyze the attributes of the shapes or may rotate the pattern blocks to determine which shapes are the same.
- Representation
- MLR8
- Determine pattern blocks that are the same when presented in different orientations.
- Explain (orally) how to determine if two pattern block shapes are the same.
- Descubramos cuáles figuras son la misma.
