What mastery looks like

Georgia's Achievement Level Descriptors. The levels are cumulative: each includes the ones before it. Proficient is on grade level.

Beginning
Given two line segments, determine whether the line segments are parallel or perpendicular. Identify quadrilaterals as faces of 3-dimensional figures.
Developing
Identify parallel and perpendicular line segments or right angles in polygons. Classify a given set of shapes as quadrilaterals based on their properties.
Proficient
Solve relevant problems involving polygons and 3-dimensional figures that have quadrilaterals as faces. Analyze specific 3-dimensional figures to identify and describe quadrilaterals as faces of these figures. Compare and contrast two quadrilaterals based on their properties, including parallel and perpendicular line segments, lines of symmetry, and right angles. Identify lines of symmetry in regular polygons.
Distinguished
Analyze 3-dimensional figures, and describe quadrilaterals as faces of these figures. Compare and contrast multiple quadrilaterals based on their properties, including parallel and perpendicular line segments, lines of symmetry, and right angles.
