1. RUSMP 2009 Learning Plan by Adam Jordan & Anna Cedillo

2. Has six (6) lessons that deal with basic geometric terminology.

3. This lesson introduces students to the undefined terms – point, line, & plane. Segment, endpoint, ray, and opposite rays are also introduced. ACTIVITY used to evaluate student ability to differentiate between geometric concepts while using the Plane Activity

4. Visual Geometry in Your World Kinesthetic String Art

5. Written Creating a crossword puzzle with minimum of 20 words Verbal Tell a story about the undefined terms in Geometry and how everything can relate back to these terms. Must use minimum of 15 words

6. The introduction of the Segment Addition Postulate is crucial to the understanding of solving for unknown values. The difference between “midpoint” and “between” arises in this lesson Distance AB = |a – b| or |b - a| Between D F E 4x + 6 7x – 9 Midpoint

7. Angle Addition Postulate allows students to work with angles. Naming angles and measures of an angle is discussed in this section. Types of angles such as acute angle, right angle, obtuse angles and straight angles are part of this lesson.

8. Once the basics of points, lines, planes, angles, etc have been established, we dive deeper with angles by using the computer with Geometer Sketchpad. GSP lab # 11 vertical angles Observations: No matter where the points move the vertical angles have the same measure

9. Now that students are familiar with GSP, they will explore different topics in groups then share their results with the class Formulas included in this section include: Area and perimeter of a rectangle Area and perimeter of a square Area and perimeter of a triangle Area and Circumference of a circle

10. Pythagorean Theorem Midpoint formula Distance formula This lesson will take groups of students through various GSP labs which will develop and connect the formulas below
