Congruent Objects

Congruent Creations
Math Place a sheet of white tissue paper on top of any picture or design. Trace the object with a pencil. Place the tissue paper on a clean sheet of poster board or drawing paper. Trace the pencil line with a heavy marker. Remove the tissue paper and see the congruent copy of the original. Use many colors of paint or pastels to fill in the objects and place them on a bulletin board. Make congruent creations of all sizes and shapes.

Congruent and Symmetric shapes
After the lesson, the student will be able to accurately point out what pairs of shapes are congruent and which are not.

Congruent figures

Testing for Congruent Triangles
