	Explain the difference between types of angles: acute, obtuse, right.	-Give examples of angles that are and are not angles of each type. -Give the students a worksheet on measuring angles.	-Create angles of each type using compass and straightedge. Students will then come up with own definition. -Measure angles with a protractor. Play the Match Game. See if the student can match the teacher in measuring an angle.	-Rubric scoring. -Students earn points for matches.

	Explain the difference between medians, angle bisectors, perpendicular bisectors and altitudes.	Have students demonstrate these using patty paper.	Use patty paper and explore various lines through folding activities.	Student group assessed for folding activities.	Create some additional problems for the class to do on patty paper.
