One More Thing...

Check out the Agenda on this page...



YOU HAVE A TEST THE DAY BEFORE PROJECTS ARE DUE!!

Be sure to pace yourself accordingly!

Re-test, Next Step, CIty Planning, and More...


Don't forget.... Friday Morning Tutorial! Re-Test on the multiple choice for the chapter 2 test!

So... what else is new in Geometry??
1. We've started chapter 3 on parallel and perpendicular lines...


2. Some of you will be seeing me for one- on- one test corrections this week. SCHEDULE A TIME WITH ME if you're one of these people!!


3. Some of you are trying our my new system called "Next Step." You'll have different homework than others about twice a week-- you'll do half of the regular homework, and half "challenge problems" that I've selected. I'll try to be sure that once weekly you're able to work together on the Challenge Problems. If you're a "Next Step" person, don't get distressed if the work is harder-- just give it your best shot and have fun. :)

4. The City Planning project is underway!! CLICK THE LINK IN THE COLUMN TO THE RIGHT TO GO TO THE ASSIGNMENT SHEET. I'm re-working the grading sheet just a bit and will hand a new one out soon.
BE SURE TO GET YOUR BLUEPRINT CHECKED BY MONDAY AT THE LATEST... and DON'T START CONSTRUCTION TILL YOU'VE HAD IT APPROVED BY ME!!!

CHANGES!!!


The Geometry blog fell behind just after Parent Night at TES. I'm sorry it wasn't up to date!

Here's the most recent schedule. We have a test FRIDAY, and review THURSDAY.

At tutorial time on Thursday and Friday, Geometry will get priority in order to get you ready for the test. I am here by 8:00 each morning, and at 7:50 on Wednesday and Friday mornings.

Next week, we start our first project-- City Planning. It's a fun one!
