Grade 5 Maths : Unit 3 : Geometry
In unit 3 we will review some geometry concepts from earlier grades while introducing and expanding on others. In Grade 4 students used a compass to construct basic shapes and create geometric designs. In Grade 5, your child will extend these skills and explore concepts of congruent figures (same size, same shape), using a compass and ruler. In addition, students will use another tool, the Geometry Template. It contains protractors and rulers for measuring, as well as cutouts for drawing a variety of geometric figures.In unit 3 your child will be measuring angles, identifying triangles and various angles as well calculating angles.
Also, the world is filled with many 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional geometric forms: angles, line segments, curves, cubes, cylinders, spheres, pyramids, and so on. Many wonderful geometric patterns can be seen in nature as well as in the things that people create. It will be helpful for you and your child to look for and talk about geometric shapes throughout the year.
