Geometry
Add some info about this item
This course is a logical development of the deductive system of reasoning with point sets in a plane. Emphasis is on the development of logic and algebraic applications to geometry. Coordinate and transformation approaches are introduced. Real-world applications and computer-based explorations of 2-D and 3-D figures are explored. Formal proofs are introduced, and deductive arguments expressed orally and in written paragraph from are developed. A ruler, protractor, scientific calculator, and compass are recommended.
Prerequisite: Grades 9 through 12; successful completion of Algebra 1
Geometry Honors
Add some info about this item
This course is for students taking advance courses in mathematics. It presents plane geometry as a sustained system of deductive reasoning and extension to related concepts of solid geometry with emphasis placed on basic facts about lines, planes, solids, and spherical figures. Introduction of coordinate geometry, space geometry, and area theory is provided. It stresses deductive reasoning through formal proofs and other mechanisms. A ruler, protractor, scientific calculator, and compass are recommended.
Prerequisite: Grades 9 and 10; completion of Algebra 1; teacher recommendation
College Preparatory Mathematics

The math classes I teach are very demanding courses. I have high expectations and I do all that I can to help students achieve those expectations. Students can keep track of any course work through the posted assignments listed on Google Classroom. Resources and other helpful tools will also be linked in Google Classroom. Students will be expected to access and utilize Google Classroom weekly.
