Teacher Directions

• Save this template into the student shared.
• Have students choose 5 slides they want to keep
  in their book and delete the extras.
• Have students identify angles, lines and
  geometric figures in each picture. Students
  titled each slide based on the geometric figures
  they find in the pictures.
• Students will write sentences explaining what
  they saw in the pictures.
• Students will use the drawing toolbar at the
  bottom of the screen to trace over the lines,
  angles and figures.
• If they do not see the drawing toolbar, go to
  view/toolbars/drawing
• As an extension, have students use the digital
  camera to take pictures of geometric figures
  around the school. Students can then use the
  digital images for this activity.

• TEKS
• 4.8A identify and describe right, acute, and
  obtuse angles
• 4.8B identify and describe parallel and
  intersecting (including perpendicular) lines
  using concrete objects and pictorial models
• 4.8C use essential attributes to define two- and
  three-dimensional geometric figures
• 4.14A identify mathematics in everyday situations

See slide 3 and 4 for a student example. Delete
this slide and slide 3 4 before using with
students.
