What's Going On? October 9th through October 13th

The End of Unit 2

Last week, we finished up unit 2.  Overall, it went really well and we added quite a few "All Stars" to our "Geo All-Stars" door. 

If the summative assessment didn't go as well as you had hoped, please make arrangements to complete a retake.  Please remember the steps that you need to take:

1. Make sure all formative work has been completed for the unit (homework and check-in "quizzes")
2. Make corrections on the original assessment.  You must make an appointment with Mrs. Kamenar to do this.
3. Request extra practice and complete it.
4. Complete the retake before our next summative.  (By Monday, October 16th)

Unit 3: Properties of Parallel Lines

With the excitement of Homecoming over, we will continue on with our study of the properties of parallel lines.  On Monday, we will review what we have learned so far about the angle relationships formed when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal.  We will also review how we can prove that lines are parallel based on angle relationships.  Students will have a quick check-in formative to gauge our level of understanding.

After that, we will focus on how we can write the equations for parallel and perpendicular lines.  This is something that students should have worked on during Algebra and we will spend two class periods reviewing these concepts.  We will end the week with a quick look at the properties of spherical geometry.  This is usually a highlight of the year, as students will be able to visualize the properties by drawing on a balloon.




Honors Geometry Gets Into the Homecoming Spirit

For each spirit day of the week, the Honors Geometry students took a group photo.  Here are the photos we took throughout the week:
