A preconception that my students might have is that they wrongly believe that only angles with the same orientation can be of the same size. In order to address this false statement, as we are going over classifying angles, I will not only be giving same oriented angles but angles that are oriented opposite. For my students a common misunderstanding in this learning segments are when students cannot correctly identify a pair of vertical angles and liner pair angles or students identifies a non-vertical angles as vertical angles. In order to get over this misconception, I will provide students with strategies they can use when examining angles. I will show them some examples and give them enough think time to analyze the problem and come up

I choose Argument A because there is a need for students to understand and be able to construct geometric figures using a compass and straightedge. I chose this argument because it is necessary that students learn the skills needed to create the geometric figures. If we were to abandon the basics of creating geometric figures and create the figures via a drawing program, we would not be able to completely understand the concept of geometric figures and how they are constructed. Argument A is better and more efficient because drawing programs may not be available at all times. Using a compass and a straightedge is more similar to real world situations. For instance, a computer will not build anything, even though it may have the digital design,
Written by Wallace Stegner, Angle of Repose won the Pulitzer Prize in 1972. Based on the letters written by Mary Hallcock Foote, the inspiration to Stengner’s character, Susan Ward, Stegner writes about a man, Lyman Ward, who has developed a bone crippling disease and has become dependent on others to assist him on his mission to discover his grandmother’s journey to Grass Valley. To accomplish this, Lyman went through a vast amount of letters and placed them in order of occurrence. His grandmother, Susan Burling Ward, had embarked on a journey of a lifetime with, her husband, Oliver Ward; on which they encountered many new hardships as they pioneered the West. Like many great quests, it leads
Moreover, they are based on seeing positive and negative shapes and noting shape, proportion, angles, direction and sub-shapes (Dinham, 2015, p. 2). Any object can be used in an observational drawing, likewise anything that is of interest to the artist or the audience. A viewfinder, such as a piece of square cardboard with a postage stamp sized cut out may be used to help isolate sections of the object, thus aiding students’ “…understanding of spatial relationships” (Dinham, 2014, p. 374). An observational drawing demonstrates the process required to carefully view and draw an object. It highlights the importance of paying particular attention to recognise the leaves lines, shape, and edges and the need to take the time to draw meticulously. Observational drawings have a positive impact in the classroom because they allow students to explore the visual world using their senses, such as their sight, to express ideas and make meaning of these processes (Dinham, 2015, p. 1). Therefore, it is recommended that the processes of observational drawing should become a regular arts practice in the classroom and must be incorporated in the curriculum several times a
A work tray will have been compiled of the necessary resources for the Numeracy task. A student may be working on shape/colour recognition; the resources may contain a tracing card with a square, a circle and a triangle; a pencil and paper. Then the student is asked to trace the shape which may require hand over hand support. Other resources will also be used but using a different approach such as solid shapes in various colours, the student will be shown a shape and asked “what is the shape?” or more simply “it’s a .....” leaving time for the student to respond and complete the sentence. They may be asked to “take the yellow circle” from a choice of two shapes. Progress is then recorded and will aid the teacher to plan for future lessons depending on the progress made or whether the task is achievable and needs adapting to best suit the ability of the
[The learning goal states that the focus learner will be able to formulate learning that all circles are similar through application of transformation techniques (translation and dilation), by the end of the learning segment. The IEP goal states requires the focus learner to describe relationships between similar geometric shapes with 70% accuracy on informal assessments, utilizing one to two supports, by the ending of May 2016. In each lesson the objectives systematically build upon each other as they support the focus learner in accomplishing the learning goal that is based on the focus learner’s IEP goal. The lesson goal and the IEP goal both relate to learning of geometric shapes, with the learning goal being more specific, the circle. After selecting the circle a Common
The teacher shows an Aboriginal painting and questions students to describe it mathematically and teaches about symmetry, shapes, angles, patterns, numbers, addition, subtraction and division found from the painting.
Even thou, geometry involve shapes, nature, conjectures, proofs, angles, formulas and patty paper, one needs the common language to express attributes. She was able to tell the number of sides a triangle, pentagon, and rectangles. She could not complete parallel line task because she did not know what parallel meant, which affected the parallelogram activity. I know that we were not supposed to give instruction, but what a great learning moment we shared. We found lines and shapes in the classroom environment and talk about where the lines started and ended. We addressed corners and where two lines met. We traced tile lines on the floor. She came to the conclusions that “top and bottom don’t touch.” We marked parallel lines and talked about what parallel meant. She remembered parallel the next day so it did make sense in her mind. In fact, she remembered the words from the warm-up. Many activities had a rubric that made it clear on how to analysis the
Chapter 5- The citizens of Flatland are taught two senses. They can feel other shapes to know what is nearby, which is the more dangerous of the two methods, and hear sound to know what is nearby. Sound is a more precise method and also lets them know what class a shape is in. Also, angles are unique and can be seen as well as increase by a degree every generation until eventually a 60 degree angle is born.
Source D is a drawing of flat axes, I concluded this as the drawings look similar to the development of hand-axes. This provides a typological sequence as through the ‘Darwinian theory’ of evolution, archaeologists applied the rule of “like goes with like” forming a rough chronological sequence. I believe these axes to be from Bronze Age Britain between 2500 to 800 BC because they’re made from copper-alloy, this could be bronze-copper alloy as it was a common alloy used. These drawings show the development of axes, the first drawing is the least developed of the axes and is therefore the oldest, the flat axes in the beginning resembled the flint axes but later developed flares, flanges and a ridge. The society that produced these axes were
The bent pyramid was a very interesting structure. Built in 2600 BC, The bent pyramid was another attempt at the perfect pyramid. However, there was a problem with the structure causing cracks to form. This is what I personally find interesting. Snefru knew that his pyramid was failing, it was no longer perfect, but he still tried. Snefru did not leave it and move on. He continued, expanding it 50 feet on each side, and changed the angle drastically half way up. This gave it a very unique look. I like that it is so imperfect, yet perfect. It's great to know that at once it was a failure, and now it is complete. The change in angle also makes you question how exactly they made it. Even though mud ramps were definitely used how they were set
Victorian homes have lovely architecture with steep roofs, which have advantages and disadvantages for you as a homeowner. The pitch of the roof plays a big role in how easy it is for you to make repairs as well as the type of roofing material you can have installed on it. If your home has a steep roof, you'll have more roofing options than a home with a flat roof because rain doesn't roll off flat roofs in the same way it does roofs with a slope. Here are some things to consider when you're thinking about buying a home with a steep roof.
Norway is synonymous with fjords - that's the first thing that comes to mind when thinking of this beautiful country. And for good reason: The fjords are Norway's main attraction!
I was determined to absorb what I needed to for my artwork and ace the class at the same time. But as the class endured, I craved the information more and not just for the sole purpose of my artwork, but because it completely enthralled me. Human Anatomy and Physiology opened my eyes to detailed elements that compose the human body that I had never seen before in my life or in my art. Furthermore, I was able to articulate a connection between my hobby in art and my fascination with anatomy. The brachioradialis muscle needs defined curvature if the forearm is turned a certain way. An eye does not end medially with the sclera but with the lacrimal caruncle. Miniscule, but essential, features would not be overlooked when I was perfecting my drawings of
Any polygon, regular or irregular, self-intersecting or simple, has as many corners as it has sides. Each corner has several angles. The two most important ones are:
