Polyhedra

Polyhedra

1. COGNITION

   • REMEBERING: IDENTIFY THE ELEMENTS OF A GENERAL POLYHEDRON, A PRISM OR A PYRAMID.
   • UNDERSTANDING: BE ABLE TO USE MATHEMATICS VOCABULARY WHILE USING FORMULAS IN GEOMETRY
   • EVALUATING: USE YOUR KNOWLEDGE ABOUT DEVELOPING SOLIDS OF REVOLUTION IN ORDER TO CHOOSE THE BETTER PLANISPHERE.
   • ANALYSING: SOLVE DAILY PROBLEMS BY MEASURING AREAS OR VOLUMES OF SOLIDS OF REVOLUTION
   • APPLYING: BE ABLE TO CHANGE UNITS OF MEASUREMENT
   • REMEBERING: IDENTIFY THE SEVERAL SOLIDS OF REVOLUTION AND DISTIGUISH THEM FORM OTHER TRIDIMENSIONAL SHAPES
