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 describe the attributes of plane geometric figures
Objectives
- Sort and regroup everyday objects and geometric figures according to attributes such as: shape, color, size
- Describe plane figures and their attributes such as: shape, color, size
- Identify triangles, circles, squares, and rectangles
- Compare, trace, and reproduce triangles, circles, squares, and rectangles
Topic
B. Solid Geometric Figures
Indicator
- 1. Recognize, describe, and use the attributes of solid geometric figures
Objectives
- Match, sort, and regroup objects according to attributes
- Describe solid figures
- Identify solid geometric figures in the environment
Topic
D. Congruence
Indicator
- 1. Recognize congruent objects
Objective
- Identify everyday objects which have the same size and shape
Topic
E. Transformations
Indicator
- 1. Begin to recognize a transformation
Objectives
- Use position words such as: over, under, above, on, next to, below, beside, behind
- Use spatial reasoning to solve simple puzzles
- Demonstrate slides using simple objects
Indicator
- 2. Analyze geometric figures and pictures
Objective
- Recognize the concept of symmetry using 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.
