This class is designed as a fun way to introduce or review the basic concepts of geometric objects. The format is games. There are potentially 3 games we will play, depending on the class size and average level of understanding. Game 1: Geometry BINGO. All students will be provided a pdf packet to download with several BINGO boards. We will use an online random selector tool to designate which learner uses which board. The items on the board will be: points, lines, rays, line segments, parallel lines, intersecting lines, perpendicular lines, right angles, obtuse angles, and acute angles, right triangles, non-right triangles, parallelograms, squares and rectangles, trapezoids, and circles. Game 2: Geometry Memory. Just like you would play with a deck of cards, we have a grid of cards learners take turns selecting pairs. I tally up the totals. Learners match objects to their names. All of the same objects from Game 1 are used in this game. Game 3: Not all class will make it to Game 3. It is for the more advanced learners ready to start categorizing shapes based on the presence or absence of certain characteristics. This is an I spy game. A picture is shown on the board, a characteristic is called out, learners must identify and object in the picture that has that characteristic and the name of the shape.
Learning Goals
Students will improve their understanding of these basic geometric objects, and how they help form the shapes they already recognize.
Students will identify lines and angles, and the shapes they make up.

Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hey Outschool families, I'm so glad you found my little corner of Outschool!
I love to teach middle school math to learners here. I work hard to keep learning fun, engaging, and when possible-challenging.
I've been teaching math for more than 2 decades, as a tutor, homeschool teacher, and homeschool mom. My all time favorite branch of mathematics is Geometry because it's so tangible, we can see it around us every day. But I also love the puzzle nature of Algebra and have a way to pass that on to my students.
I believe that every person can be a math person, even if they don't think they are right now. They just need to experience the challenging topics and skills in a way that makes sense to their unique brain. I see every one of my learners as a Unique Math Mind, and it's a privilege and a pleasure to help them see it too.
While I focus on Math, because that's the subject I love most, I am working on some classes that utilize math but aren't math focused. I love to garden and can my produce, so I'm working on something in that area. I'm also a quilter, and there's a TON of math involved with that sewing skill that I'd love to share. Actually, swing in general may pop up here soon.
I also will be adding some life skills classes very soon. My college degree is the brain based background to how we learn and things that make learning a challenge. I am also a late diagnosed ADHD brain, who struggled with a lot of things and developed a lot of skills and strategies that got me through my school years. So I'll be adding some study skills, planning, and journaling classes that will focus on our unique brains and relieving test and school anxiety.
