Geometry
his course covers all topics in a standard high school Geometry class, including proofs and constructions, parallel and perpendicular lines, properties of angles and triangles, congruence, similarity, polygons, circles, area, surface area, and volume. Students become familiar with numerous postulates and theorems and learn how to apply them.
This course includes two 50-minute meetings per week of live instruction and uses a dynamic software product, giving students the benefit of the best instructional technology while also having access to a real instructor. As students work on homework assignments, they find out right away if their answer is correct. As needed, they can access immediate help in various forms including being guided through a problem, viewing the steps of a similar problem, or watching a short video clip reviewing the relevant concept. They can also contact the instructor with comments or questions at any time. Students complete quizzes and tests online and submit their written work to the instructor. Assignments, due dates, and grades are easily available for students and parents to view.
Live class sessions include interactive problem solving to ensure understanding and mastery. Students collaborate in small groups using writing tablets to work through problems under the guidance of the instructor.
An additional $35 non-refundable deposit is required for the Math software program (per year, not per semester).
This class is open to new students for the spring semester. A list of topics covered in the fall semester is posted below. Students who have covered these fall topics are welcome to enroll for the spring: Spring Term Prerequisites
