Classifying Two-Dimensional Figures Based on Attributes & Properties

T.I.P.S.

Lightbulb

Students must be able to classify two-dimensional figures in sets and subsets that go from general attributes to specific attributes.

Example

Beck’s math assignment sounded simple, but he is a little confused. He is supposed to create a graphic organizer to show how quadrilaterals are a part of the same family. Someone suggested that he might be able to do it using a Venn diagram. Make one that would help Beck better understand the ways that various quadrilaterals are related.
