Similarity and Congruence

The document provides lesson plans for teaching similarity and congruence as well as a tessellation activity. The similarity and congruence lesson aims to help students differentiate between the two concepts and appreciate differences among peers. The tessellation activity applies these concepts by having students cut and paste shapes to make a design, working cooperatively in groups. Students will present their work and receive feedback to practice cooperation and teamwork.

shapes. Inform students that the shapes are polygons (a close plane figure). Introduce the concept of tiling
and how there can be no gaps or overlaps. Demonstrate the concept on the overhead using the square.
2. Let the students work in assigned groups.
3. Give them 20 minutes to finish their work.
4. Each group will present their work in front of the class.

Evaluation: Each work will be judged by other groups. Each leader of the groups will say ‘like’ or ‘dislike’ on each work
of the other groups. The product with the most number of likes will ‘win’ the activity.

Assignment: Prepare for a short quiz.
