Geometry - Calendar - 2021-22
What's different about Geometry? Get ready to think about math in a whole new way!! Use logic and reasoning to explain yourself and support your conclusion. This will be a lot more terminology and quick questions compared to Algebra, but the thinking and visualization will be different then Algebra. Algebra is all about 'making an argument to support your conclusion' and visualization. Geometry is shapes, angles, relationships, proportionality, design, and movement.

Purple is in-class discussion.
Red is the assessment taken. Blue is outside of class work. |
Tutoring available any time before school with me or
after school in the math office or IMC (Academic Assistance Program has math tutors.)
Week of ....
After a full week of school, we discussed as a class to strictly use Google Classroom. Students agreed they prefer to have everything in one place, and that the features in classroom allow them to find what they need. Students can search for particular topics by selecting a 'tag' or searching by target number as T#. For example, if a student needs to search for vocabulary information, search for T1.
Cross Sections site - if you could slice a figure with a plane, what shape would you get from the 3-D solid? Explore some, and change the shapes, use the sliders, think about slicing the figure at different angles. What polygon (or circle/ellipse) would you see?
Also, if you can get it to work in Internet Explorer, check out this website on polyhedron.
Fri - Guided notes on Surface Area of Prisms & Cylinders
GOOGLE CLASSROOM
Can you tell the difference between a translation, rotation, reflection (or even dilation?) Let's watch... and this one, too!

Wiki: Proof Definitions, Postulates, Theorems
Proofs Practice Website - this is the one you can select statements and reasons in order to complete the proof, then it tells you if it works.

If you at any point think you are not keeping up with me, please tell me. You have lots of options to tell me - before school, in class, after school, homeroom & study hall, email. The sooner you tell me, the faster I can get you back on track. One thing you will learn about me right away, especially if you express your concerns, is that I am here to help YOU.

Tessellations
Tessellations are formed with polygons that meet at a vertex to form 360 degrees. These shapes are then rotated to continue a pattern. It's something artsy we can create with polygons. Create your own tessellations here!
