Module 25: Shapes-Math 2B - Course Guide


Module Overview:

In this module, students will identify two-dimensional shapes and identify attributes of shapes. They will explain how a shape can be identified by the number of sides, vertices, and angles. Students will identify three-dimensional shapes and use attributes to classify three-dimensional shapes.

Module Guiding Questions:

When a student starts a lesson ask them questions to check for prior knowledge and understanding and to review concepts being taught. At the end of the lesson ask the questions again to see if their answer changes.

Lesson Title Question
Two-Dimensional Shapes
  1. What are the attributes of two-dimensional shapes?
Angles and Vertices
  1. What are vertices and angles?
Three-Dimensional Shapes
  1. What are three-dimensional shapes?
Faces, Edges, and Vertices
  1. What are faces, edges, and vertices?
Relate Shapes and Solids
  1. What are solid shapes?

Module Video Questions:

When a student watches a video take time to ask them questions about what they watched. Suggested questions for the videos in this module are listed here. Suggestion: Have the student watch the entire video first all the way through. Then have them watch the video a second time, as they watch it pause the video and ask the questions.

Lesson Title Video Question
Two-Dimensional Shapes Shapes and Attributes
  1. What shapes did you learn about in this video?
  2. What are the attributes of the shapes you learned about in this video?
Angles and Vertices Angles and Vertices
  1. What are the angles of a shape?
  2. What are vertices?
Three-Dimensional Shapes Three-Dimensional Shapes
  1. What are the attributes of three-dimensional shapes?
  2. What are some examples of three-dimensional shapes?

Module Suggested Read Aloud Books:

Take time to read to your student or have them read aloud to you. Read a different book each day. While reading the book point out concepts being taught. You may purchase these books or find them at your local library. Suggested things to discuss while reading the book:

  • What is the main idea?
  • What are three things new you learned?
  • How does this book relate to what you are learning about?
