- 3. Intro of Geometry/Definition of Geometry ➢ Geometry - the branch of mathematics concerned with the properties and relations of points, lines, surfaces, solids, and higher dimensional analogs. ➢ 3rd Grade Geometry includes… REASON WITH SHAPES AND ATTRIBUTES → CCSS.Math.Content.3.G.A.1 -- Understand that shapes in different categories (e.g., rhombuses, rectangles, and others) may share attributes (e.g., having four sides), and that the shared attributes can define a larger category (e.g., quadrilaterals). Recognize rhombuses, rectangles, and squares as examples of quadrilaterals, and draw examples of quadrilaterals that do not belong to any of these subcategories. (Categorize different types of shapes (squares, rectangles, rhombuses, etc.) -- distinguish between types of shapes and be able to know how to label and group them based off of their attributes.)

Geometry Quiz GAME LINK: https://play.kahoot.it/#/k/edeb700b-4d30-472f-afdd-6ef20b838a85 ● Play this game with the students for a review of all the different geometry concepts they have learned! Check for their understanding - it can be used as a tool for assessment or just a fun end of the lesson activity to do!
- 9. MINI reflection ❖ What are the benefits and/or challenges of using presentation platforms like Google Slides? Google Slides has several benefits and challenges to it, like any technological tool. Google Slides allows for the teachers and students to present their ideas or concepts to the class in a timely and organized manner, allowing room for creativity for the presentation style. Having that as a benefit, it is also sometimes challenging when you use Google Slides and its the only presentation platform you use because then the lessons and information you are presenting end up very cut and dry, however with creativity and using other platforms along the side, you most likely won’t run into that problem! Google Slides allows for the student or the teacher to share their own personal ideas in a summary format by creating numerous slides in a manner where almost everyone can comprehend based off of Google Slides presentation elements. Overall, Google Slides and many other presentation platforms pose risks but if you learn how to use the platform ahead of time, they will be some of the best tools for you in and outside of the classroom.
