ASSURANCES: By the end of Geometry, the student will be able to: 1. Use properties of triangles and quadrilaterals to solve problems. 2. Identify, classify, and draw two and three-dimensional objects (prisms, pyramids, cylinders, cones, and spheres). 3. Use logical reasoning to justify steps in problem solving. 4. Use properties and attributes of parallel and perpendicular lines to solve problems. 5. Apply concepts of congruence and similarity. Problem solving applications must be included in daily instruction. The teacher needs to pace instruction so students are able to develop a conceptual understanding. Therefore, the timeline is flexible. It is critical that the objectives for each quarter are completed by the end of that quarter. The teacher should incorporate some of the following TEKS in every lesson: A Identify and apply mathematics to everyday experiences, to activities in and out of school, with other disciplines, and with other mathematical topics. (TEKS b8.14a) B Use a problem-solving model that incorporates understanding the problem, making a plan, carrying out the plan, and evaluating the solution for reasonableness. (TEKS 8.14B) C Select or develop an appropriate problem-solving strategy from a variety of different types, including: work backwards guess and check make a table draw a picture look for a pattern work a simpler problem acting it out D Communicate mathematical ideas using language, efficient tools, appropriate units, and graphical, numerical, physical, or algebraic models. (TEKS 8.15A) E Use logical reasoning to make conjectures from patterns or sets of examples and nonexamples (TEKS 8.16 A) F Validate conclusions using mathematical properties and relationships.
