Ms. Fodea started her first-period geometry class. Each student was to investigate a packet of ...

Ms. Fodea started her first-period geometry class. Each student was to investigate a packet of geometrical forms and draw generalizations from their explorations. Students sat quietly at their desks examining the different plastic shapes, comparing them, measuring their lengths and angles, computing perimeters and surface areas, and recording their observations.

As the students work and Ms. Fodea circulates among them, from a cognitive constructivist perspective, which of the following should she most strongly emphasize?
A) Emphasize the role that numbers and quantitative understanding play in helping to understand geometry.
B) Make sure that students know the names of the shapes and the formulas for finding them.
C) Encourage the students to make precise measurements of each shape.
D) Encourage the students to individually apply existing knowledge of geometric shapes to find patterns in their observations.
