What's Going On? September 27th through October 1st

 Thought for the Week

Freshmen MAP Testing This Week

This week, freshmen will participate in our first MAP test for the year.  On Tuesday morning, students will complete the English portion of the test.  On Wednesday afternoon (after lunch), students will complete the Math portion of the test.

Unit 2: Introduction to Proof

For our time in class this week, we will focus on an introduction to formal two-column proofs.  We will spend Monday's class focused on Algebraic proof and the rest of the week will be devoted to basic Geometric proof.  The idea is that students will be able to form a logical argument and justify their argument throughout the process.

It's Homecoming Week!

Check out the dress-up days and our schedule for Friday.

Need Extra Help?

I am available Monday-Thursday before school and during our lunchtime JIT.  Please see me in room 300. I would be happy to help!

Unit 2: Reasoning and Proof

This week in Honors Geometry, we will begin our second unit on reasoning and proof.  We will start the week by talking about logic statements and talking about how we can determine the truth value for different statements.  We will also learn about how to write an indirect proof or proof by contradiction.  We will finish the week by completing a formative assessment to check our level of understanding of logic statements.

Schedule for the Week

Need Extra Help?

As a reminder, students are welcome to come in for some extra help before school or during the last 15 minutes of lunch, Monday-Thursday.  Students can find me in room 300.

Wrapping Up Unit 1: Basics of Geometry

We will start off this week by focusing on the last two topics of the unit.  Monday's class will focus on some more basic geometric vocabulary, including supplementary angles, complementary angles, vertical angles, and linear pairs.  Our Tuesday class will be devoted to applying our geometric knowledge to the coordinate plane.  We will apply the midpoint and the distance formulas in order to find the precise length and midpoint of line segments on a graph.  During class on Wednesday, we will review for our first summative.  Our Friday class will bring our first summative assessment for the year.  

Please remember: students who complete all homework assignments for the unit prior to our summative on Friday may be eligible for a summative retake.  

Need Some Extra Help?

Please see Mrs. Kamenar in room 300 in the morning (7:20-7:50) or during lunchtime JIT if you would like some extra help!

Unit 1: The Basics of Geometry

This week, we will continue on with our study on the basic building blocks of Geometry.  We will spend Tuesday's class talking about some more Geometric vocabulary and we will have our first Geometry formative during class on Wednesday.  For this formative, we will focus on how to appropriately define and label basic geometric objects such as perpendicular bisectors, midpoints, lines, and more.  We will wrap up the week by learning how to perform constructions.  For this lesson, students will need to have a compass and a ruler.

Here is our formal plan for the week:
