Geometry Week 9

Class was so fun today. Everyone is feeling comfortable to talk, ask questions, and work together. The students worked ahead on their work. I did examples from their homework, but they didn’t want to stop. They kept working on the other homework problems. That tells me that they want to get it done, and understand the concept. We did 2 constructions and they didn’t need me to explain it to them. They just did it. I supervised to see that they were doing it correctly. We copied a triangle and then did the SSS construction. These were very similar to each other

We started a new unit, Unit 4, today much of the time was spend on the basic grammar (terms) of triangles. Then we started the basic proofs for triangles. These proofs will be more straightforward than previous chapters.

Today I handed out a tri-fold page for the notes sheet on 4.1. They filled it out as we went. This kept this sections notes confined to one page.

 

Below are the videos for today's class. Here are all the videos for Unit 4.
