PolygonSort Is that shape a polygon? Drag each shape onto the word, "polygon". If it is a polygon, it will disappear. If it is not a polygon, it will stay visible. Polygon
Quadrilaterals * four sided polygon *measures of the angles add up to 360°
QuadrilateralSort Is that shape a quadrilateral? Drag each shape onto the word, "quadrilateral". If it is a quadrilateral, it will disappear. If it is not a quadrilateral, it will stay visible. Quadrilateral
Rhombus *four-sided polygon with all sides equal lengths *measures of the angles add up to 360°
Parallelogram *four sided polygon *two pairs of parallel sides *measures of the angles add up to 360°
Rectangle *four sided polygon *two pairs of equal sides *four 90° angles *measures of the angles add up to 360°
Square *four sided polygon *all sides are equal *all angles are 90° *measures of the angles add up to 360°
Trapezoid *four sided polygon *exactly one pair of parallel sides
Using multiple pattern blocks, how many triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, and ...... can you make?
How are a rhombus and a parallelogram the same? How are they different? They both have: 4 sides polygons quadrilaterals parallel lines In a rhombus, all sides are equal. In a parallelogram, only pairs of sides are equal. SAME DIFFERENT SAME

Congruent -or- Similar?
Congruent *the same shape and size *two shapes are congruent if you can turn, flip and/or slide one so it fits exactly on the other

Flips, Slides, -and- Turns
Flips *a transformation in which a plane figure is flipped or reflected across a line, creating a mirror image of the original figure
Flips Make a flip using a picture of yourself on Picnik.com. Use the "flip" feature in the edit menu to make the flip.
Slides *move a shape without rotating or flipping it *the shape still looks exactly the same, just in a different place
Slides Make a slide using a picture of yourself on Picnik.com. Use the "collage" feature in the to make the slide.
Turns *rotate around a point
Turns Make a turn using a picture of yourself on Picnik.com. Use the "rotate" feature in the edit menu to make the turn.
