Little Cities - Geometry

Students are supported to categorize and sort polygons by their properties. They work to transform 2-D shapes into 3-D polygonal prisms as they build little city models. Adding arrays for patios, students figure out the number of tiles in each, the cost of the patios with tiles at $2 each, and they explore equal partitions of the patios and determine that shapes don’t need to be congruent to be of equal size.
