4 Classifying Quadrilaterals In their math notebook, have your student explain what a quadrilateral is and how quadrilaterals are classified.
5 Common Quadrilateral Attributes Have your student explain the characteristics quadrilaterals have in common.
6 Symmetry In their math notebook, have your student explain what symmetry is.
7 Polygons In their math notebook, have your student answer the following questions: What is a polygon? How can prefixes help identify polygons? How do you identify the different types of polygons?
8 Hierarchy of Quadrilaterals In their math notebook, have your student describe the hierarchy of quadrilaterals.
9 Regular and Irregular Polygons In their math notebook, have your student explain the difference between regular and irregular polygons.
10 Lines of Symmetry In their math notebook, have your student explain how to identify lines of symmetry in polygons.

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.

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.

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?

# Book Author Lexile Level

Module Outing:

Take some time to apply what your student is learning to the real world. Suggested outings are below.
