What's Going On? February 8th through February 12th

Thought for the Week

Wrapping Up Unit 7 on Similarity

At the beginning of the week, we will focus in on our last two topics in our similarity unit.  We will spend Monday's class talking about Similarity Transformations.  We will talk about how we can apply a scale factor change to a figure on a graph and end up with similar figures.  During Tuesday's class we will have a brief formative check-in on similarity transformations and also talk about self-similarity.  This is when a part of a figure is similar to the whole.  We will spend Wednesday's class reviewing and have our summative assessment during class on Friday.

Unit 7 Learning Targets

1f -  I can prove the similarity of two geometric figures
1g - I can prove theorems about similar triangles and their properties
2d - I can verify and justify properties of dilations

Students who need some extra help are invited to come in for our "JIT" sessions held at the end of every lunch period.  Students can find me in room 300.  I am also available within WebEx for our students who are learning virtually.
