2-13-2006 Math 2 Bring your calculator! Bring your ruler!
1. HOMEWORK due today: Scale Factor Sheets (handout) Measure in cm.
2. Determine scale factors from measureed sheets.
3. Proportion set-ups and calculator solutions.

OBJECTIVE: •GS02 1.3.3; 1.3.4 a) Items may ask students to identify or name ordered pairs describing the location of points or objects in any of the four quadrants on a two-dimensional coordinate grid. b) Items may ask students to identify, plot, and/or label points or shapes on a coordinate grid given ordered pairs. c) Items may ask students to identify or name ordered pairs describing the location of figures that have been translated and/or reflected on a 2-dimensional coordinate grid. d) Items may ask students to identify whether an object has been transformed by a translation and/or a reflection or by a rotation with or without a coordinate grid. e) Items may ask students to identify a picture or diagram of a rotation of 90° or 180° about the center or a vertex of a figure or a combination of two translations and/or reflections of a simple figure, with or without a coordinate grid. f) Items may ask students to plot or draw a combination of two translations and/or reflections of a simple figure on a coordinate grid or to draw a 90° or 180° rotation about the center or a vertex of a figure in the first quadrant. g) Items may ask students to describe the transformation of one object to another on a 2-dimensional coordinate grid, in terms of a combination of two translations and/or reflections. h) Items may ask students to describe a translation, reflection, or rotation so that another person could draw it. i) Items may ask students to explain a series of transformations in a diagram or picture. ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Determine scale factors from measured sheets.(handout). Emphasies the the scale FACTOR is MULTIPLIED by a dimension Introduce proportion set ups from generated worksheets (review) NOTES: SF greater than 1 = larger; smaller than one = reduced.
