Reasoning 2

Jenny thinks that the shape matches her statement.

Is she correct? Explain your answer.

This quadrilateral has

1 pair of parallel lines and 0 right angles.


Reasoning 2


Is she correct? Explain your answer.Jenny is incorrect because…




Reasoning 2


Is she correct? Explain your answer.Jenny is incorrect because this quadrilateral is a parallelogram so it

has 2 pairs of parallel lines and no right angles.

Step 4: Quadrilaterals

National Curriculum Objectives:

Mathematics Year 4: (4G2a) Compare and classify geometric shapes, including

quadrilaterals and triangles based on their properties and sizes

Differentiation:

Developing Questions to support identifying and describing the properties of

quadrilaterals. Including right angles and 3 types of quadrilateral (rectangles,

parallelograms, and squares). All shapes in ‘standard’ orientation.

Expected Questions to support identifying and describing the properties of quadrilaterals.

Including right angles, parallel lines and 5 types of quadrilateral (rectangles,

parallelograms, squares, trapeziums and rhombus). All shapes in ‘standard’ orientation.

Greater Depth Questions to support identifying and describing the properties of irregular

quadrilaterals. Including right angles, parallel lines and 5 types of quadrilateral

(rectangles, parallelograms, squares, trapeziums and rhombus). Shapes presented in

different orientations.
