Geometry is Underway!

When we're not doing filming for the production at exotic locations (like Lake Washington or the Museum of Flight), we are continuing with our academic pursuits - the most recent of which is an introduction to Geometry. Chapter 1 begins with an intensive study of new, pertinent vocabulary as well as our first exposure to geometrical theorems and postulates. This work in geometry is far more independent than our previous study of algebra. The text, Painless Geometry, was selected for it's readability and students will be expected to read as part of their homework. We will also be having regular mini-quizzes when we meet for class as well as short end-of-chapter tests, our first of which will be this Thursday, May 17th. So next time you see your student, ask her about collinear points, rays, planes and line segments!
