About this worksheet
Each worksheet has 9 problems choosing the correct symbol name for a line segment, ray or line.
This worksheet asks children to name a figure in symbols - the bar for a line segment, the one way arrow for a ray, the two way arrow for a line - and to pick the letters that match the labeled points. The order of the letters matters for a ray, where the arrow starts at the first letter, but not for a segment or a line, so a reversed name is offered as a choice only where it is genuinely wrong. Sheets can be customized, turned into flash cards, or assigned for online learning.
Student objectives
- Write a line segment, ray or line using the correct symbol.
- Know that the order of the letters matters for a ray but not for a segment or line.
- Match the letters in a name to the labeled points on the figure.
Everyday practice
- Draw a figure and write its name in symbols underneath.
- Say why segment AB and segment BA are the same but ray AB and ray BA are not.
- Label two points on a drawing and name the figure they make.
