Welcome to the 2015-2016 School Year!

Welcome back to school!  My name is Mrs. Kamenar and I will be working with you in your Honors Geometry class this year.  This will be my eleventh year teaching at Waukesha North.  This year I will be teaching Honors Geometry, Fundamentals of Programming, Programming the Web 1 & 2 and Yearbook.  In addition to teaching at North, I am also an assistant women's cross country coach and the school's yearbook advisor.

I hope that everyone had an enjoyable and relaxing summer.  This summer went by too fast, but I guess it always seems that way.  This summer I got to spend a lot of time with my husband and my two kids, Jack and Laura.  We spent our time going to the zoo, the children's museum, going to the library and swimming.  My husband and I took a few days to visit Hawaii where we were able to visit Pearl Harbor and have a lot of fun in the ocean snorkeling, kayaking, and cliff jumping.

My goal is to keep you up to date with what's going on in the classroom through this blog.  Between the blog and our class schedule of events that will be posted on our BlackBoard class website, it is my hope that all students and parents will be informed about what's going on in the classroom.  This week we will begin our study of some basic geometric terms.  We will ease into the year by talking about inductive reasoning and patterns.  We will also talk about some of the basic building blocks of Geometry and their naming and labeling conventions.  We will finish up the week by going over measurement and learning the properties of segment and angle addition.

I am really excited to get to work with you this year.  I hope we are all able to learn a lot and have some fun along the way!  If you have any questions as we move through the year, please don't hesitate to contact me.
