Connect the Dots: Isometric Drawing and Coded Plans
Read the Fine Print
Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

Students learn about isometric drawings and practice sketching on triangle-dot paper the shapes they make using multiple simple cubes. They also learn how to use coded plans to envision objects and draw them on triangle-dot paper. A PowerPoint® presentation, worksheet and triangle-dot (isometric) paper printout are provided.

0.0 stars

Kindergarten comes to a close with another opportunity for students to explore geometry in Module 6. Throughout the year, students have built an intuitive understanding of two- and three-dimensional figures by examining exemplars, variants, and non-examples. They have used geometry as a context for exploring numerals as well as comparing attributes and quantities. To wrap up the year, students further develop their spatial reasoning skills and begin laying the groundwork for an understanding of area through composition of geometric figures.

0.0 stars

Spatial visualization is the study of two- and three-dimensional objects and the practice of mental manipulation of objects. Spatial visualization skills are important in a range of subjects and activities like mathematics, physics, engineering, art and sports! In this lesson, students are introduced to the concept of spatial visualization and measure their spatial visualization skills by taking the provided 12-question quiz. Following the lesson, students complete the four associated spatial visualization activities and then re-take the quiz to see how much their spatial visualization skills have improved.

Let’s Take a Spin: One-Axis Rotation
Read the Fine Print
Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

Students learn about one-axis rotations, and specifically how to rotate objects both physically and mentally to understand the concept. They practice drawing one-axis rotations through a group exercise using cube blocks to create shapes and then drawing those shapes from various x-, y- and z-axis rotation perspectives on triangle-dot paper (isometric paper). They learn the right-hand rule to explore rotations of objects. A worksheet is provided. This activity is part of a multi-activity series towards improving spatial visualization skills.

El jardín de infantes llega a su fin con otra oportunidad para que los estudiantes exploren la geometría en el módulo 6. Durante todo el año, los estudiantes han creado una comprensión intuitiva de las figuras de dos y tridimensionales mediante el examen de ejemplos, variantes y no exámenes. Han utilizado la geometría como contexto para explorar números, así como comparar atributos y cantidades. Para concluir el año, los estudiantes desarrollan aún más sus habilidades de razonamiento espacial y comienzan a sentar las bases para comprender el área a través de la composición de figuras geométricas.

En el módulo 2, en el contexto del juego en el aula, los niños aprenden a identificar, describir, clasificar, comparar y crear formas y objetos bidimensionales (2-D) y tridimensionales (3-D). Los niños desarrollan vocabulario para describir la posición relativa de los objetos (por ejemplo, arriba, abajo, arriba, abajo, delante de, detrás, sobre, debajo y al lado), construyendo habilidades de razonamiento espacial fundamental. En el módulo 1, los estudiantes desarrollaron una comprensión de los números a 5. En el módulo 2, los estudiantes practican estas habilidades de contexto en el contexto de la geometría (contabilidad de lados, esquinas, un grupo de triángulos, etc.).

English Description:
In Module 2, in the context of classroom play, children learn to identify, describe, sort, compare, and create two-dimensional (2-D) and three-dimensional (3-D) shapes and objects. Children develop vocabulary to describe the relative position of objects (e.g., top, bottom, up, down, in front of, behind, over, under, and next to), building foundational spatial reasoning abilities. In Module 1, students developed an understanding of numbers to 5. In Module 2, students practice these counting skills in the context of geometry (counting sides, corners, a group of triangles, etc.).

New Perspectives: Two-Axis Rotations
Read the Fine Print
Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

Students learn about two-axis rotations, and specifically how to rotate objects both physically and mentally about two axes. A two-axis rotation is a rotation of an object about a combination of x, y or z-axes, as opposed to a single-axis rotation, which is about a single x, y or z-axis. Students practice drawing two-axis rotations through an exercise using simple cube blocks to create shapes, and then drawing on triangle-dot paper the shapes from various x-, y- and z-axis rotation perspectives. They use the right-hand rule to explore the rotations of objects. A worksheet is provided. This activity is part of a multi-activity series towards improving spatial visualization skills. At activity end, students re-take the 12-question quiz they took in the associated lesson (before conducting four associated activities) to measure how their spatial visualizations skills improved.

Seeing All Sides: Orthographic Drawing
Read the Fine Print
Educational Use
Rating
0.0 stars

Students learn how to create two-dimensional representations of three-dimensional objects by utilizing orthographic projection techniques. They build shapes using cube blocks and then draw orthographic and isometric views of those shapes—which are the side views, such as top, front, right—with no depth indicated. Then working in pairs, one blindfolded partner describes a shape by feel alone as the other partner draws what is described. A worksheet is provided. This activity is part of a multi-activity series towards improving spatial visualization skills.
