Parallel and Perpendicular Lines
Last week we ended our second chapter of the year on logic statements and our introduction to proof. Students received their chapter 2 summative assessment results during class on Monday. Students who have earned the privilege of a test retake have until Monday of next week to make corrections on the original assessment, complete the extra practice and complete the test retake.
This week in our Geometry-Honors Algebra 2 Block course we will be starting our study of parallel and perpendicular lines. We will define terms related to parallel lines such as
- Corresponding Angles
- Alternate Interior Angles
- Alternate Exterior Angles
- Same-Side Interior Angles
On Tuesday the freshmen enrolled in the course will complete the first of three math MAP tests for the year. The math MAP test is designed to chart a student's growth in math knowledge throughout the year.
On Wednesday, students will take a formal formative assessment on angle relationships related to parallel lines. This will help students prepare and get feedback for next week's summative assessment which is scheduled for Tuesday.
If students have questions, they can come see me for extra help. I am currently available starting at 7am each morning until I go on maternity leave. Once I am on maternity leave, students can make arrangements with our long-term substitute, Mrs. Rahn, for extra help.
