Use attributes to recognize rhombuses, parallelograms, trapezoids, rectangles, and squares as quadrilaterals; draw examples outside subcategories.
TEKS 3.6B bridges prior learning and next steps in Mathematics, keeping Quadrilaterals coherent across the year.
TEKS 3.6B provides a clear foundation for continued study of Quadrilaterals in future grades.
Start with concrete or familiar examples, connect to prior knowledge, model a clear process, and provide checks for understanding aligned to 3.6B.
Standard 3.6B describes the essential skills and understandings for Quadrilaterals in Grade 3. It clarifies the learning outcomes and what successful work looks like.
Use short exit tickets and tasks where students explain decisions, show multiple representations, or justify answers—directly aligned to 3.6B.
Students may rely on procedures without reasoning or mix key terms. Build in quick oral explanations, error analysis, and vocabulary supports tied to 3.6B.
