=6th Grade Geometry=

__**Introduction:**__ This lesson will help you to learn and understand everything that you will be taught this year in the geometry section of your math class. Using the links and aids below you will learn the geometry vocabulary, work through problems, see pictures or videos, and find games to help you study. You will be able to see how geometry fits into your everyday life and in the real world!

1. Begin by using the website below to search for the following definitions (click on the link and click through the different geometry sections to find the definitions for each of the following words):
 * __Tasks:__**

[|Geometry] definitions

__Supplementary angles-__

__Complementary angles-__

__Parallel Lines-__

__Perpendicular Lines-__

__Acute angle-__

__Obtuse angle-__

__Right angle-__



2. Create a word search using Puzzlemaker. You must use at least 15 geometry words (you may start with the vocab words above) Click the link below, then select Word Search, and begin creating! Once everyone has made their own word searches, you will exchange with another classmate and see if you can solve their word search! [|Puzzlemaker]



3. Your final task is to watch the geometry video below. After watching the video, what can write what things you learned about planes and geometry (new words, vocabulary, formulas, etc.)

 * 4.** **9.C.3a this standard states that students will learn how to construct, develop, and communicate logical **
 * arguments (informal proofs) about geometric figures and patterns. The students will be allowed to this but using technology around them such as calculators, smart boards, and any programs online to help them accomplish there understanding of geometry. **

[]
 * 5. This worksheet will be helping students find the circumference of a circle. The measurements of the circles are on the worksheet. This worksheet is a day one worksheet, once the students are familiar with the material by either just learning it or review from prior knowledge this worksheet is a great stepping stone before getting into more complex material. Students are allowed to use any resources at their disposal including calculators and any online resources. **

** 0-2 ** ||  ** Developing ** ** 3-5 ** ||  ** Accomplished ** ** 6-8 ** ||  ** Examplary ** ** 9-10 ** ||  ** Score **  ||
 * || ** Beginning **
 * Basic Understanding of Geometric Terms || Knows little to no terms does not know simple pre-lesson terms || Understands the basic terms, knows about half the knowledge || Knowledge of almost all the terms and knows when they will be used || Knows all the terms and when they will be used, students have mastered this area ||   ||
 * Understanding how to Use Tools to solve Geometric Problems || Students spend little to no time trying to use helpful tools, little effort || Students are attempting to use the tools but not very successful || Students are familiar with the tools can solve most problems but still struggle just a bit || Students have no problem solving equations and have no problems with tools and show mastery ||   ||
 * The Ability to solve Geometric Problems on Paper || Students have shown little progress in this area and really do not try or attempt problems || Students try hard and have shown improvement and are making a good effort to get better at solving problems || Students to quite well in solving problems they do not really struggle but miss problems || Students know how to solve problems without problems and can solve problem with easy show mastery ||   ||

__**Conclusion**__ Once you have completed the three tasks above, you have completed the WebQuest! Be sure to print out your cross word puzzle and turn it in so that it can be given to another student for completion! Check out the links below for more math games and information!
