I can apply my knowledge to…
6.G.Ai – I can solve problems by modeling 2-D shapes and finding their area.


¨  Find the area of polygons by composing into rectangles.
¨  Find the area of polygons by decomposing into triangles and other shapes.
¨  Use coordinates to find the length of a side with one common coordinate.
¨  Solve real-world problems involving area of complex shapes.
¨  Draw polygons in the coordinate plane given coordinates of the vertices.
6.G.Aii – I can solve problems by modeling 3-D shapes and finding their surface area and volume.

¨  Apply the formula: V = lwh.
¨  Apply the formula: V = bh.
¨  Represent 3-D figures using nets to find surface area.
¨  Find the volume of a right rectangular prism with fractional edge lengths using a visual module.
¨  Apply surface area and volume in real-world and mathematical contents.

We will have homework on Monday, and Tuesday. Students will also be working on the following IXL strands:
     

      Have a great week! Ms. Silas
