Quadrilaterals part 2 (Tons of links to amazing quadrilateral resources)

We just finished the quadrilateral unit and my student that rarely does anything made a 72!  Whoa!  I mean we cannot discuss the child's average, but let's just state that if grades were like golf scores, this kid would be killing it.  First, I started with the coloring quadrilateral notes from Math Giraffe.  Go sign-up as a follower on her site and you get the doodle notes for free!  Umm, yes please.  Site link here.


I also paid a few bucks for her coloring quads always, sometimes, never sheet.  Again, anytime that is coloring, my kids are down.  You can find the link to her store here.

We went on to a classifying activity and most of them knocked it out of the park.  I threw in a quiz that day on kahoot!  If you have never used Kahoot and you have wifi capable tools in your class, sign up!  The kids again, loved it!  This whole week was a success lesson wise, if only they were always like that.

Then, as a summary activity we did the bulletin board, found here.  I put the kids in groups with giant pieces of bulletin board paper and they worked in teams of 4 putting it together.  I made sure I checked it prior to gluing, but a few did it prior to me checking.  They only had a few errors, which show that the properties were mastered.  We finished up with Kahoot, once more checking to see if they could solve for the missing angle measure.





Study guide and test day were a breeze, thanks to all the wonderful resources available.

  1. We have switched from Kahoot to GimKit. Kids love this more. I like it because students do less guessing.
