Geometry Essentials 2016-2017 Welcome to Geometry Essentials! Students in this class work to improve their math and problem-solving skills through many modalities. We do math the traditional, paper and pencil way, but we also do group work, partner activities, hands-on projects, and use technology to solidify and transfer newly learned skills. Instructor Mrs. Beatriz Wagener [email protected] 224-632-3313 Classroom Policies DHS attendance and tardy policies apply to this class. The expectation is that students are ready to participate, with all necessary materials, when the bell rings. Materials Like architects who need to bring their tools to the job, you will need to bring your own tools as students. The following is a list of equipment needed to discover, explore and understand Geometry. ● Geometry textbook, AGS Publishing ● Binder with dividers/tabs ● Spiral notebook ● Pencil ● Red pen ● Highlighter ● Basic function calculator ● Chromebook ● Assignment notebook sroom set of scissors, glue, rulers, and protractors is available for t use Participation The classroom follows the First Class philosophy. You are expected to actively and appropriately participate in each activity. It is also expected that you will treat each other with respect and dignity in order to create an environment that is safe and supportive for all to learn. Geometry Essentials 2016-2017 Homework/Grading To be good at anything, one needs to practice, practice, and practice! Math homework assignments will not be counted for an accuracy grade; they are for practice of newly learned skills and they will always be reviewed the next time the class meets. Exception: if class time is given, but not used efficiently, an unfinished, graded in-class activity or project may be assigned as homework. Homework will be posted on the board every day. Time is allotted to write it down in the assignment notebook and ask questions. Tests/Quizzes Tests and Quizzes will always be announced in advance. A review sheet and/or review activities will be given in preparation for the assessment. Students are typically given a second chance on assessments. Problems that are marked with the “try again” symbol, can be rethought or reworked for credit. Content Overview & Objectives ❖ Points and Lines ➢ Identify, name and draw endpoints, line segments, lines, rays, and collinear points ❖ Classifying and Measuring Angles ➢ Identify the parts of an angle ➢ Name and classify angles based on their number of degrees ➢ Draw and measure angles using a protractor ➢ Identify and name adjacent, complementary, supplementary, and vertical angles ➢ Determine missing angle measures based on known measures ❖ Parallel and Perpendicular Lines ➢ Identify and construct parallel and perpendicular lines ➢ Use symbols to describe pairs of lines ❖ Lines in the Coordinate Plane ➢ Identify the parts of a coordinate plane ➢ Locate and plot points on the coordinate plane Geometry Essentials 2016-2017 ➢ Reflections, slides, translations, and rotations ❖ Polygons ➢ Identify a geometric figure as a polygon ➢ Distinguish between concave and convex polygons ➢ Describe the characteristics of regular polygons ➢ Classify polygons according to the number of sides ➢ Use tangrams to produce specified polygons ➢ Distinguish quadrilaterals from other polygons ➢ Identify specific quadrilaterals including parallelograms, rectangles, rhombuses, trapezoids, squares ➢ Learn about the characteristics of quadrilaterals and apply them to solve problems ❖ Triangles ➢ Identify and construct triangles (equilateral, isosceles, scalene, acute, right, obtuse) ➢ Identify the sum of the angles of any triangle as 180 degrees ➢ Use the angle sum theorem to find the measure of unknown angles ❖ Perimeter and Area ➢ Find the perimeters of given polygons ➢ Use the perimeter of a polygon to find the unknown length of a side ➢ Use appropriate formulas for finding areas of squares, rectangles, and parallelograms
