Students had the option to take home a study package today at school. We will have 30 minutes of review/preparation for the test. If students have any questions, they can ask during this time.
Grade 6's will be quizzed on...
- knowing how to calculate the perimeter of a polygon
- knowing the difference between estimated and precise measurements (38.4 or 38)
- estimating, measuring, and writing down length and area using the metric measurement system
- choose and explain why they chose to use a certain metric unit (mm, cm, m)
- converting units of measurement (9 m and 12 cm = how many cm? how many mm?)
- knowing the relationship between the area of a rectangle, the area of a parallelogram, and the area of a triangle (In class, we cut a rectangle from one diagonal to the other and found that it became two triangles- we then reconfigured these shapes to make a parallelogram)
- knowing the formula to solve area of a parallelogram (bXh) and area of a triangle (bXh/2) and the reasoning behind these formulas (video below for area of triangle)
