Performance Task-GRAS= PS

Unit Subject Area: Math = Unit Topic: Geometry Grade level: 2

Standard: M2G1 Students will describe and cl= assify plane figures (triangles, square, rectangles, trapezoids, quadrilaterals, pentagons, hexagons, and irregular polygonal shapes) according to the numbe= r of edges and vertices and the sizes of angles (right angle, obtuse and acute).=

Enduring Understandin= g: All things that are used by human = beings have a geometric shape.

Goal: You will identify plane and solid figures. You will identify plane and solid figures based on the number of edges, vertices and sizes of angles.

Role: You will be a news reporter for WC= ES news.

Audience: You will be reporting the results = of your research to Campbell Elementary students.

Situation: Students will be interested in hearing the reporter’s research= and data. Mrs. Cadet has contacted our class and has asked us to investigate wh= ere you find the shapes in your environment. It is your job as an investigative reporter to search for, list, graph and then write a report based on the findings.

Team 1: list items

Team 2: graph items based on number of edg= es, vertices, and angles

Team 3: write a repor= t

Product/Performance: = You will make a list of what you see during your first day of research. For the next= 5 days, you will add to your list of what you see in your environment. After getting the total number of shapes and identifying them based on their angl= es, edges, and vertices, you will write a news broadcast. This broadcast will be delivered to the student body during the morning new.
