A Little Bit About Honors Geometry For many students, learning Geometry is similar to learning a new language. Proofs are often difficult for students to grasp at the beginning of the course. Generally, marking periods 1 and 2 are more difficult than 3 and 4. Geometry is included on the SAT.

My Teaching Philosophy My ultimate goal is to give your child the self confidence necessary to be successful. I am very enthusiastic about math. It is my sincere hope that some of this enthusiasm will be passed on to your child.

Keys to Success Warm Ups Notes – (I suggest a binder!) Homework Studying Asking for Help – (Clinic room 265)

Grading Midterm/Final 25% Homework 5% Other – (tests/quizzes/Projects)

Return of Assessments Policy All assessments are graded and returned in a timely fashion. I go over the assessments with the class, touching upon common difficulties. Students are then given the opportunity to ask questions regarding the assessment. I collect the tests and keep them until everyone has taken it Assessments can be taken home upon request. District assessments, i.e. midterms and finals, are not returned.
