I'm getting excited for PI day :)
6th Grade Math
Generally, we are starting "Covering and Surrounding".
Please return "Bits and Pieces" to your teacher and pick up a copy of "Covering and Surrounding".
Monday: pre-assessment
Tuesday: The pre-assessment showed you have a solid understanding of the definitions of area and perimeter. We will continue to work on the formulas for Area and Perimeter of common shapes, and learn about how BASE and PI tie into all of it.
In class, work on this in IXL: Area of parallelograms and trapezoids.
Then, work on this in IXL: Area of triangles and trapezoids.
Work at least 10 minutes on each of these sections above.
So, what is BASE?
For homework - Goin' old school - MEMORIZE THE FORMULAS BELOW:
Areas of Two Dimensional Figures |
Thursday: first thing, quiz on formulas of any regular polygon, circle, and trapezoid
Friday: Independent work. Planning for PI Day: read the History of Pi article. Underline what you DO understand, ignore what you don't. Think about how you will present your poster.
On Monday, I will ask you each
i) to recite PI to TWELVE digits (3.14159265259)
ii) what the PURPOSE of PI is and
iii) HOW PI is used in an important ratio regarding circle.
