Math: Today we looked at line symmetry - chapter 8, lesson 11. We discussed symmetrical versus asymmetrical, how to find a line of symmetry, and how to determine all the lines of symmetry a figure may have. We watched a power point that showed symmetry in nature, architecture and art. It also discussed regulary polygons (shapes with sides of equal length) and the fact that if the shape is regular than the number of sides = the number of lines of symmetry. We practiced problems on p. 466 as well as naming symmetrical letters in our alphabet. We checked HP p. 73 and reviewed transformations and turned in our transformation drawing.
HW: None (if you did not turn in your drawing, please do so tomorrow for a late grade since I am going to count it as a classwork grade)
Enrichment: Computation challenge: subtraction with zeros. Topic: Line plots and Stem and Leaf Plots to go with our review of Unit 1 and its vocabulary. We surveyed our class to collect data. We recorded it to make a line plot and stem and leaf plot. (chapter 6 in our book)
HW: Read for log, finish your stem and leaf plot and your line plot using class data, study your vocabulary
