= Solid Figures and Nets = = Module 6 = = = = = ===Summary: After a Notebook interactive review lesson of 3-dimensional figures and nets, students were asked to construct a 3-dimensional figure using connectors and rods. Students were then asked to predict a net for the figure. Students traced the figure on large newsprint and cut out the net. The net was compared to the predicted sketch and students reflected on the investigation.===

===﻿Reflection: I have used the same review lesson in the past. I have also had students construct the solid figures and work in groups to trace nets. For the open-ended assessment, I not only required the creation and construction of figures and nets, but added the reflection sheet so that students could explain the outcome in their own words, describing how their vision and the final net compared. I feel that students were much more accountable for their outcomes with the reflection sheet and came away with much more from the lesson. After reflection sheets were turned in, we discussed the results and I found that students were much more verbal in the discussion and those who usually hold back interacted with the discussion.===
