Overview • Basic terms of geometry • Drawing, using, and visualizing with diagrams • A lot of new vocab, postulates & theorems to learn • Geometry/Algebra applications • Using logic to prove statements • Properties of triangles, quadrilaterals, area, • perimeter, volume • Standardized test prep
Expectations • Be on time • Be prepared • Be nice • Try your best • Do what you need to do in order to succeed • Contribute to the class • Seek help ANY TIME you need it
Supplies & preparedness • Graphing calculator (as required by the math department for all high school courses) • Pencils • Designated 3 ring binder with loose leaf paper for handouts and notes • At least 4 colors of markers, highlighters, or colored pencils (color-coding is a great tool for marking diagrams in geometry!) • COVER textbook & bring to class every day
Grading • Points System • Homework checks almost every day • Midterm & Final • Average Updates: Every test or quiz AND on the Parent Portal (HAC) • Quizzes and tests are returned to keep once all students have taken them • There will be a quiz or test almost every week • Projects may be given throughout the year
Clinic & make-up work • Make-up Work: When you are absent, it is the STUDENT’S RESPONSIBILITYto find out what was missed. • Ask a friend for notes • Show the teacher the homework that was due when you were out. • Check the “What did I miss?” bulletin for handouts. • Missing tests & quizzes should be made up on the NEXT clinic day. Otherwise, the student will be expected to take the assessment during class. • Clinic is held on Tuesdays & Thursdays (or other by appointment)
Tips for success • Homework, Classwork & Review Worksheets • Clinic is held most days in room 272 • Ask questions • Try your hardest • Take good notes and complete classwork/homework carefully • Study for tests and quizzes by practicing • Color code notes & diagrams • Use my website often!
