Standard 2.0 Knowledge of Geometry
Students will apply the properties of one-, two-, or three-dimensional geometric figures to describe, reason, or solve problems about shape, size, position, or motion of objects.
Topic
A. Plane Geometric Figures
Indicator
- 1. Recognize and apply the properties/attributes of plane geometric figures
Objectives
- Identify, name, and compare triangles, circles, squares, rectangles, and rhombi by their attributes
- Create models of triangles, circles, squares, and rectangles with varied materials
- Combine and subdivide squares and triangles
Topic
B. Solid Geometric Figures
Indicator
- 1. Recognize and use the attributes of solid geometric figures
Objective
- Identify and compare cubes, spheres, cylinders, pyramids, cones, and rectangular prisms
Topic
C. Representation of Geometric Figures
Indicator
- 1. Represent plane geometric figures
Objective
- Sketch triangles, circles, squares, rectangles, and rhombi
Topic
D. Congruence
Indicator
- 1. Identify congruent figures
Objective
- Match congruent figures
Topic
E. Transformations
Indicator
- 1. Recognize a transformation
Objectives
- Use the direction, location, and position words right and left
- Apply spatial reasoning in activities such as: pattern block
- Identify and demonstrate slides and flips using manipulatives
Indicator
- 2. Analyze geometric figures and pictures
Note: Highlighted assessment limits will be tested in the no calculator section of MSA. In the assessment limit, (0-10) or (-10 to 10) means all numbers in the problem or the answer will fall within the range of 0 to 10 (including endpoints) or -10 to 10 (including endpoints), respectively. All content standards are tested in MSA but not all objectives. Objectives that have an assessment limit are tested on MSA. Objectives without an assessment limit are not tested on MSA.
