Help sort shapes in the shape factory. Examine examples of shapes and determine if they belong in the Yes quadrilateral set. Examine examples of shapes that do not belong in the set. Work out what features of the quadrilaterals are important and test your ideas by sorting some shapes. Then program the robot and see if it sorts the shapes into quadrilateral sets correctly. This learning object is the fourth in a series of seven objects.
Objective
Students apply inductive reasoning to identify types of quadrilaterals.
Students compare shape features in order to identify the geometric properties that define a set of shapes.
