This is a wonderful activity to use after studying the various quadrilaterals and their properties. Included are parallelogram, rhombus, rectangle, square, trapezoid, isosceles trapezoid, and kite. Print the Task Cards and scatter them around the room and give each group or student an answer recording sheet. Students will need to identify the quadrilateral based on the markings on the diagram and then find the missing values of lengths or angle measures in the diagrams. For some Task Cards s
This activity is especially good for reviewing and comparing the properties about the diagonals of the various quadrilaterals and also gives students practice in measuring accurately with a ruler.
In this activity students will be accurately drawing the named quadrilateral by first drawing its diagonals and then connecting the four endpoints of the diagonals to form the specific quadrilateral.
Students will first think about and write down what the diagonal properties are for the named quadril
My students always seem to need more practice with learning the properties of all the quadrilaterals so I made up this set of task cards for this purpose. It is a set of 32 task cards in which students will need to know the properties of each type of quadrilateral to correctly identify the quadrilateral. Students need to analyze the given information on the diagram or given description to give the most specific name of the quadrilateral. This set does not include setting up algebra equations to
When I remind students to study for the upcoming math test I generally get the response, “How do you study for a Math test?” This Math Analysis Sheet is perfect for getting students to reflect on their study habits and their results to make the connections necessary for being successful on tests. Often they are surprised that many of their mistakes are in their control and can be prevented on future tests.
