 * Math Unit of Study Using Web 2.0 Tools**


 * Topic: Geometry**


 * Skills:**
 * **Types of Triangles**
 * **Sum of Angles of a Triangle**


 * = **Day** ||= **What will students do the night before?** ||= **What will they do in class?** ||
 * = **1**
 * (See Lesson Plan Below)** || The students will watch Triangles video from [|Math Live] and complete the accompanying worksheet. ||< In class, they will view Part 1 of the SMART Notebook presentation and complete their "rules card" as they review that information. Then, they will sort triangles into three categories: equilateral, scalene, and isosceles. Finally, they will complete a round robin review with their tables to review the three types learned today. ||
 * = **2** || They will read information about [|Types of Triangles based on Angles]. Then, they will play the game until they get 5 correct. They will e-mail results of the game to the teacher. ||< In class, they will view Part 2 of the SMART Notebook presentation and complete their "rules card" as they review that information. Then, they will sort triangles into three categories: acute, obtuse, and right. Finally, they will complete a round robin review with their tables to review the three types learned today. ||
 * = **3-4** || They will review rules card made in class with information from Day 1 and Day 2. Then, they will view "Review Slide" of SMART Notebook and e-mail answers to the teacher. For additional practice, they can play [|Baseball Geometry]. ||< Each table will construct a "Memory Game" with all 6 types of triangles learned. The memory game will include 6 pairs that include 6 types, definitions, and examples of triangles. Then, they will rotate around the room to play these games. Then, they will complete an individual assessment where they have to identify the 6 types independently. ||
 * = **5** || They will go back to the SMART Notebook presentation with a protractor and measure the 3 angles of the triangles pictured to find the sum of the angles of a triangle always = 180. ||< In class, they will fill out their "rules card" with the necessary information about the interior angles of a triangle. Once the teacher reviews how to compute the missing angle, the students will complete a round robin review with their tables with the same 6 problems at each table. Then, each table will have to demonstrate one problem on the SMART Board. ||
 * = **6** || They will have to bring in 6 different triangle models to school tomorrow. They can be drawn, pictures in magazines, pictures downloaded, etc. ||< After each group shares their 6 examples, they will make a group poster that includes each type of triangle, as well as the measurements of the interior angles labeled. ||


 * Day 1 "Flipped" Lesson Plan**


 * Topic: Geometry**


 * Skills:**
 * Types of Triangles
 * Sum of Angles of a Triangle


 * Materials**
 * Internet Access
 * SMART Board with SMART Notebook and Internet Access
 * Accompanying Math Live Worksheet
 * Types of Triangles Rules Card
 * Accompanying SMART Board Packet
 * Round Robin Triangle Cards

5.G.4 Classify two-dimensional figures in a hierarchy based on properties. ||
 * = **Objective** ||= **Common Core Standards Addressed** ||
 * < Students will be able to:
 * identify the characteristics of the following triangles:
 * equilateral
 * isosceles
 * scalene
 * Utilize a ruler to measure the three sides of a triangle.
 * Use measurement of the sides of a triangle to classify triangles into the three categories:
 * equilateral
 * isosceles
 * scalene ||< 5.G.3. Understand that attributes belonging to a category of two dimensional figures also belong to all subcategories of that category.


 * Anticipatory Set (done previous night):**
 * Students will go to [|Math Live] and click Lessons, then Triangles. This [|Math Live] episode will outline the difference between equilateral, isosceles, and scalene triangles.
 * While watching the episode, the students will complete the accompanying worksheet and play at least one round of "Name that Triangle."
 * Parents will have to sign off that the students watched the required episode as well as received a certain score in "Name that Triangle."


 * In Class Activities:**
 * As students arrive, they will make this lesson's "rules card," and add it to their table of contents in their rules book. While the students are making their rules card, the teacher will play [|Sesame Street Triangle Video] (starring Telly and James Blunt).
 * To review the content covered in last night's [|Math Live] episode, the teacher will share the[| Rock the Standards Triangle Song]. Then the teacher will elicit from the students the notes from their accompanying sheet that needs to be included on the class "rules card."
 * Using the information on their rules card, the students will then be given four triangles to sort into one of the three categories on the screen (equilateral, isosceles, scalene). Using their rulers, they will measure all three sides, then come up to the SMART Board to place the triangle in the correct column.
 * Once the students demonstrate that they understand what the three different types of triangles are, they will begin the round robin game. Since each table has 6 students. Six index cards will be placed face down on each table. When the teacher says, "Go!" each student will take one card and flip it over. Using their ruler, they will measure the three sides of each triangle, then sort it into the correct category as well as draw a model of it on the provided chart. Then, in a round robin fashion, each minute, they will pass their triangle to the next person at their table and complete that triangle until they have completed all six examples.


 * Closure:**
 * Each table will review the answers to one example from the round robin game and draw their model into the appropriate category on the SMART Board.
