Math Week 14

  January 25-29, 2021

**There is no PDF available for this week**

This week we are focusing on Identify, create, and analyze single transformations of 2-D shapes (with and without the use of technology). (SS5.7)

Single transformations of 2-D shapes - rotations

 When we rotate an image, we turn a shape on a point of rotation.  We can turn or rotate the image clockwise or counterclockwise.  The point of rotation will be on one of the vertices of the shape.

Think about the hands on a clock.  When the minute hand moves from the 12 to the 3, it rotates a quarter turn clockwise.


When the minute hand moves from the 12 to the 6, It rotates a half turn clockwise.


When the minute hand move from the 12 to the 9, it rotates a three-quarter turn.




Please click the link below to watch how to rotate objects.


Now that you have seen how to do rotations, on a piece of paper draw a triangle.  Label the vertices A, B and C.  Rotate the triangle a half turn clockwise, and label the vertices on the image.

Draw a square and label the vertices A, B, C and D.  Rotate the square 3/4 turn clockwise and label the image and its vertices.

Draw a shape (not a circle) of your choice. Choose a vertex to rotate your shape 1/4 turn counterclockwise.  Label your image and the vertices.  

Once you have finished, take a picture and email or text the picture to ct.sdillon@gmail.com or 306-821-1392.

This week we are focusing on Identify, create, and analyze single transformations of 2-D shapes (with and without the use of technology). (SS5.7)

Single Transformations of 2-D shapes reflection


Reflection:  When a shape is reflected in a mirror we see a reflection image.  The line segment that joins a point to its image is perpendicular to the line of reflection.  A shape and its image have opposite orientations, or face opposite ways.  A reflection is sometimes called a flip because when a shape is reflected, it is flipped over.




Click on link to practice Drawing Reflections

Practice drawing reflections on a piece of paper.  Take a picture of your drawings and send them to ct.sdillon@gmail.com or text images to 306-821-1392

Math Week 12

 January 11-15, 2021

**There is no PDF available for this week**

This week we are focusing on Identify and sort quadrilaterals, including: rectangles, squares, trapezoids, parallelograms, rhombuses, according to their attributes.(SS5.6)

Terminology:

Edge:  a line segment between faces.

Face:  any of the flat surfaces of an object.

Vertex:  the corner of an object

Side:  In a 2 dimensional shape, one of the line segments, or edges, in a 3 dimensional shapes, one of the faces

Symmetrical:  A shape is symmetrical when it can be folded so that one part matches the other part exactly.  The fold line is the line of symmetry. 

Look at the pictures below for further explanation.

Horizontal:  A line that goes from left to right or right to left.

Vertical:  A line that goes up and down.

Perpendicular:  2 lines that intersect at a right angle.

Right Angle:  2 lines that form a 90° Angle

Vertex:  The point where 2 sides of a shape meet

Math Week 10

December 14-18, 2020

**There is no PDF available for this week**

This week we are focusing on solving equations using variables (Outcome P5.2)

What is a variable?  A variable in math is our unknown.  We usually represent this unknown with a letter or a symbol.  For example, in the following equation, the variable is the letter c.

c + 2 = 5 
c - 2 = 5 - 2
c = 3

I can check my answer by substituting my answer for the variable.

3 + 2 = 5

If I get the right answer, then I know the value of the variable.
