Investigating Geometry Part 3 (Of 5)
Class experience
US Grade 9 - 12
In this Third part of high school geometry, we will investigate Geometric transformation and similarity (3 times a week for 8 weeks). In each of these parts your child will be taught the skill and then asked to apply the skill in a discovery lesson. Skill learning will be circular within each part. Meaning a skill that you learned in Part 1 will be retaught with further learning in another part. Below is a breakdown of what you will see in this class. In this class we will be working with...
Objectives for this course: Define and identify examples and non-examples of rotations, reflections, and translations. Describe and draw horizontal and vertical translations and write the associated function with inputs and outputs. Describe and draw reflections. Draw a reelection when given a rule and write a rule given a reflection. Describe and draw rotations of multiples of 90 degrees clockwise and counterclockwise. Draw a rotation when given a rule with inputs and outputs and write a rule for a given rotation. Identify the degree of rotational symmetry and the number of lines of reflectional symmetry of polygons (rectangle, parallelogram, trapezoid, and other regular polygons). Specify a sequence of transformations that will carry a given figure onto another. Combine transformations and write the associated function. Construct an equilateral triangle and describe its rotational and reflectional symmetry. Construct a square and describe its rotational and reflectional symmetry. Construct a regular hexagon and describe its rotational and reflectional symmetry. Draw a dilation when given a rule (center and scale factor greater than 0). Draw a dilation when given a rule (center and scale factor greater than 0) and write a rule given a dilation. Verify that a side length of the image is equal to the scale factor multiplied by the corresponding side length of the pre-image of the dilation. Develop a definition for similarity using the principles of dilation and identify examples and non-examples of similarity. Develop similarity statements and identify corresponding angles and sides based on the statements.
From August of 2014 till June 2018 I worked as an adjunct math instructor and the program coordinator of the learning lab at Southern WV Community and Technical College. As the program coordinator of the learning labs I saw a lot of student who had been taught to memorize math instead of discover math. My experience not only as a math instructor, but as a radio engineer and data analysts has led me to the belief that math is best learned through skill building, discussion, and discovery. I decided that I wanted to work with students starting in Pre-algebra, Algebra one, and Geometry. Currently I teach the following classes: (Make sure to scroll to the end to find out about office hours)
Homework Offered
I am a homeschooler, and I enjoy the freedom of figuring out how my child is assessed. I will give suggested practice problems each class and provide homework videos. Whether or not the practice problems are mandatory and graded is up to the parent. I will give in-class assignments such as discovery labs and discussion word problems. If you want an assessment done on your learner at the end of class, it will be the job of the parent to contact me within the first week of class so that I can send them my due dates for assessment work.2 - 4 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
If a learner needs an evaluation at the end of this class, make sure to turn in all evaluation worksheets in a timely matter.Grades Offered
Materials required: A geometry set is required for this class. Any set that has the following items will do: A ruler (12 inches and 30 cm) A protractor A compass Mirror Here is an example on amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0745Z3RTZ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1YMG5SVGVCW58&psc=1 Your learner will also need a notebook to write in. Geometry has its own set of vocabulary and learning it can be like learning a new language. Students will have a set of vocabulary term they must put in their geometry dictionary (notebook) each week.
knowmia will be used for grading evaluation. parents/student will not be required to have the program. https://www.techsmith.com/knowmia-education.html https://www.desmos.com/calculator https://www.geogebra.org/
