1 Geometry Mrs. K Smith The Purpose of the geometry curriculum is to encourage student awareness of the importance of mathematics in the modern world. The course includes among other things, properties of geometric figures with reasoning to justify conclusions. Methods of justification will include paragraph proofs, twocolumn direct and indirect proofs coordinate proofs. The student will have the understanding of many theorems and how to deductively prove the theorems. The students will be able to use the concepts of the geometric theorems and apply them to an algebraic language. Course Outcome: Students will have been taught the NYS Geometry standards/and common core standards. All topics taught this year are listed below. Every student will take the NYS Geometry Regents and the Common Core Geometry exam in June. The exam with the higher grade will count as 20% of their final average. How to achieve mastery: - Student must have good attendance, if they are absent please get notes and assignment from that day. - Student must get extra help if they need it. -Student must complete all assignment s even if they are not graded (it is their way of practicing) Grading policy: Homework count 1 time, Quizzes count 2 times and tests count 3 times. There are occasional extra credit poster projects also. Materials Required: 5 subject notebook, folder, scientific or graphing calculator, compass, ruler.

Similarity, right triangles, TRIGONOMETRY (new) 29%-37% 3. Circles 2-8% 4. Expressing Geometric Properties with equation 12-18% 5. Geometric Measurement &Dimensions 2-8% 6. Modeling with Geometry 8-15% Note that all of these topics with the exception of right triangle trig, cavelieri principle and some minor vocabulary words added have been covered in past practice with the regular geometry standards from NYS. -
