Grade 5 - Shape and Space

Standard 5.SS.6 - Practice identifying the names of shapes based a description.

Included Skills:

Identify and sort quadrilaterals, including:
• rectangles
• squares
• trapezoids
• parallelograms
• rhombuses
• according to their attributes.
• Identify and provide examples for the types of quadrilaterals that are found in one's home, school, and community.
• Compare different quadrilaterals using concrete materials and pictures, identify common and differing attributes, and sort the quadrilaterals according to one of the attributes (e.g., relationships between side lengths, or number of pairs of parallel sides).
• Analyze a set of sorted quadrilaterals and determine where a new quadrilateral would belong in the sorted set.
• Describe, orally or in writing, the attributes of different quadrilaterals including rectangles, squares, trapezoids, parallelograms, and rhombuses.
• Create a model to illustrate the relationships between different quadrilaterals (e.g., demonstrating that a square is a rectangle and a parallelogram is a trapezoid) including rectangles, squares, trapezoids, parallelograms, and rhombuses.
