  1. Grade Band: HS Geometry Domain: Modeling With Geometry

  2. Why this domain is a priority for professional development • Real world applications • Modeling in high school is going to be a big stretch for high school teachers • Modeling is motivational for students, not just in geometry but throughout high school • Many employers will be looking for this type of skill

  3. Key standards in this domain that pd should focus on • The cluster “Apply geometric concepts in modeling situations” provides good examples for introducing teachers to modeling in general. • Fermi problems (do all the birthday cakes eaten in a year fit into the University of Phoenix Stadium) introduce teachers to important aspects of modeling such as making reasonable assumptions and estimating. • Solving geometric design problems involves making strategic choices about the simplicity versus complexity of the model (easier here than with algebra and functions).
