Grade 4 Geometry Quiz

The Grade 4s have been preparing for their quiz for the past few weeks. I feel they are more than ready to write tomorrow. I have made sure their red duotangs were sent home today so that they can review for tomorrow. I have included pics of some of our anchor charts as well as a strategt=y for answering problem-solving questions.

For the quiz, students will need to know:
  • benchmark angles (90 degrees-right angle), straight line (180 degrees), acute (less than 90 degrees), and obtuse (greater than 90 degrees)
  • identify a benchmark angle on a picture or real life example
  • types of lines (Ex. perpendicular, parallel, intersecting, etc)
  • identify all lines of symmetry on a 2D shape as well as draw the other half of a symmetrical object
  • identify different quadrilaterals based on their characteristics (Ex. a quadrilateral with 2 pairs of parallel lines is a parallelogram OR a quadrilateral with 1 pair of parallel lines, 2 acute, and 2 obtuse angles is a trapezoid)
  • Students should be able to identify different quadrilaterals based on their pictures
  • compare polygon (2D shape with 3 sides) to a quadrilateral (2D shape with 4 sides)
  • understand that there are different types of parallelograms (rhombus, rectangle, square)
