What's Going On? December 14-18th

Hour of Code

Thank you to all of the students that participated in last week's Hour of Code event.  As I write this blog post, over 166 million students from 180+ countries participated in this worldwide Hour of Code event.  If you were not able to join us or you would like to find out more about computer programming, you can check out the code.org website or the Hour of Code website that I used for our event.



Polygons and Quadrilaterals

This week we will be finishing up our Polygons and Quadrilaterals unit.  We will talk about how we can prove which type of figure we are dealing with by taking our shapes to the coordinate plane.  We will talk about how we can write a formal two-column proof to show which type of quadrilateral we have.  We will finish up the week by reviewing and completing our unit 6 summative.  If you have any questions, please make sure to get them answered this week.  Also, if you would like to be test-retake eligible, please check out Infinite Campus and make sure that you are up to date with all assignments for the unit.
