LESSON PLANS (CLICK HERE TO PREVIEW ONE OF OUR LESSON PLANS)
Lessons correspond to each of the expectations of the Ontario curriculum. All lessons follow a 3-part format including expectations, learning goals, examples, minds-on activities, action activities, extension/discussion activities, and consolidation activities. In some instances, there are two lessons to cover an expectation because of the depth and/or difficulty. I would suggest you move on at a pace appropriate for your students.

Digital Classroom Slides
We have created a copy of the lessons that can be shared in your Digital Classroom. The slides are the same but the Teacher’s Notes and Answers have been removed.
STATIONS (CENTRES) – Based on Original Expectations
Students can work on the material in different ways. I use this as an opportunity to spend some time with GUIDED GROUPS (Questions included) for the first half of the period and monitor/assess during the second half of the period. This can be a difficult routine to establish, but well worth the effort!
- Two guided stations
- Measuring Angles (skills practice)
- Math Art (dilatations)
- Manipulatives (tangrams)
- (Media) Video Links
VOCABULARY WORD SEARCH
TRACKING TEMPLATES
STUDY GUIDE and UNIT TEST (with answer keys). I give the students the STUDY GUIDE at the beginning of the unit and have them meet with me periodically before the test to ensure they understand the material
