1. -Homework: Pages 176+ Additional Practice 4..
OBJECTIVE: •To use the definition of similarity to recognize
when figures are similar •To determine the scale factor between
similar figures to find the lengths of corresponding
sides[1.1.4] •To find a missing measurement in a pair of
similar figures[1.1.4] •To use the relationship between scale
factor and area to find the area of a figure that is similar
to a figure of a known area[3.2.1] •To solve problems that
involve scaling up and down[1.1.4] Finish Up page
ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Warm-Up: %proportion Area Perimeter.
NOTES: HOMEWORK: P53 #14

1. -Homework: Page 53 #14......
2. =Washington Map Scale Problems....
OBJECTIVE: See 2-9 above. ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Warm-Up:
%proportion Area Perimeter. Revisit page 45 lesson 4.4 using a
local area map. Students will measure the specified distances
in inches and convert to miles using a stated scale (determine
scale factor) NOTES: HOMEWORK: P48 3/4/5
2-11-2004

1. -Homework: Page 48 3/4/5.......
2. =Quiz Questions..
OBJECTIVE: See 2-9 above. ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Warm-Up:
%proportion Area Perimeter. Students will work in groups of 4
generating one multiple choice question for a test on scale
factors and similarity. NOTES: Multiple choice questions will
be used on the test. Authoring group will be excused from the
questions - students with all homework for the previous 5
school days will be excused from another of their choice.
HOMEWORK: P58 #4 Explain your answer thoroughly. Avoid
pronouns. Use diagrams with labels. Neatness counts. Due Friday
2-13.

1. =Page 60 Problem 5.1......
OBJECTIVE: •To recognize similar figures in the real world •To
find a missing measurement in a pair of similar figures [5.1.1]
•To apply what has been learned about similar figures to solve
real-world problems[1.1.4] •To collect data, analyze it, and
draw reasoned conclusions from it[3.3.3]
ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Warm-Up: %proportion Area Perimeter. If
possible, use problem 5.1 on page 60 to investigate similar
triangle. A spotlight model might work for an alternate.
NOTES: Depends on a number of factors to see if it can be done.
HOMEWORK: Finish/final copy P58 #4 previously assigned
2-13-2004

1. -Homework: Page 58 #4.......
2. =Warm-Up Quiz....
3. =Optional Test.......(Scheduling today is optional)
OBJECTIVE: See 2-12 above ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT:Warm-Up Quiz:
%proportion Area Perimeter. Optional test on scale factor and
symmetry if available. Alternate P61 Problem 5.2 start. NOTES:
Launch U-Box project. Acquire mirrors for 5.2 - Check on
possible locations. HOMEWORK: P68-69 10-11
