  • Classifying Polygons
    Elementary Classifying Polygons Common Core: Understand that attributes belonging to a category of two-dimensional figures also belong to all subcategories of that category. (5.G.B.3) Classify two-dimensional figures in a hierarchy based on properties. (5.G.B.4) Objectives: 1) Students will learn vocabulary related to polygons. 2) Students will use that vocabulary to classify polygons. Materials: Classifying Polygons worksheet Internet access (for looking up definitions) Procedure: 1) Students search the Internet for the definitions and record them on the Classifying Polygons worksheet. 2) Students share and compare their definitions since they may find alternative definitions. 3) Introduce or review prefixes and suffixes. 4) Students fill in the Prefixes section, and share answers. 5) Students classify the polygons found on page 2 of the worksheet. 6) With time remaining, have students explore some extension questions: *Can a polygon be regular and concave? Show or explain your reasoning. *Can a triangle be concave? Show or explain your reasoning. *Could we simplify the definition of regular to just… All sides congruent? or All angles congruent? Show or explain your reasoning. *Can you construct a pentagon with 5 congruent angles but is not considered regular? Show or explain your reasoning. *Can you construct a pentagon with 5 congruent sides but is not considered regular? Show or explain your reasoning. Notes to Teacher: I have my students search for these answers and definitions online, however I am sure that some math textbook glossaries

The prefix used is from Greek. The Greek term for 5 is Penta, so a 5-sided figure is called a _____________. We can draw figures with as many sides as we want, but most of us don’t remember all that Greek, so when the number is over 12, or if we are talking about a general polygon, many mathematicians call the figure an “n-gon.” So a figure with 46 sides would be called a “46-gon.” Vocabulary – Types of Polygons Regular - ______________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ Irregular – _____________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ Equiangular - ___________________________________________________________ Equilateral - ____________________________________________________________ Convex - a straight line drawn through a convex polygon crosses at most two sides .
