<p>Assessment Ideas for G.3 and G.4 – Not limited to these Skill Based Tasks from Utah A parallelogram has four sides, with both sets of opposite sides parallel. What types of quadrilaterals are parallelograms? </p><p>Regular polygons have congruent sides and angles. Name or draw some regular polygons. </p><p>Performance Based Tasks from Utah Provide a series of “sometimes, never, or always” questions, and require that students provide a written or pictorial explanation for each answer. Example: A parallelogram is a square—sometimes, never, or always? Explain how you know. </p><p>Explain why all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares. </p><p>My friend was sure that she had made a rectangle. The teacher said that it was not a rectangle. How can my friend check to see if it is?</p><p>Have students make their own piece of art, making sure to include a variety of polygons. Have students use their understanding of hierarchy to make the piece (for example, the top of the picture can contain any polygons, but as it goes down it has to use more specific types of polygons).</p><p>Performance Task from Smarter Balanced</p><p>Another Performance Task - Smarter Balanced</p><p>1.
