Periods 1 and 2 Honors Geometry grade 9
Objective Students will find perimeter, circumference and area for squares, rectangles and circles in order to solve real-world problems. Following the warm up, Mrs. Dennard demonstrated a few problems from the homework, and taught the new lesson. This was largely a review of previous grades work, but the pracatice is good for retention. Students were assigned practice problems to work out in class, and a homework assignment. A few Period 1 students had some poor behavoir - they required many requests to stop talking and get on task. They were kept for 2 extra minutes after the bell because of this.
For these students: please be warned that the next time there will be detentions assigned for those who do not reasonably follow the teacher's instructions.
Classwork: Text pp 51-59,#1-19.

Periods 1 and 2 Honors Geometry Grade 9
Objective: Students will solve problems using the distance and midpoint formulas, and use midpoint formula to find an unknown endpoint, given one point and its midpoint. Following the warm up, Mrs. Dennard taught the lesson on finding the endpoint coordinates, and demonstrated several problems for studeents. Practice problems were assigned, and students worked in pairs on the practice. Mrs Dennard called each student to her desk to discuss their interim progress report. Students were praised for high scores, for making significant parogress, or for gett all assignments in on time. Others were counseled on what they needed to do tho improve their averdage score. This is by and large to get assignments done in a thoughful manner, and turned in on time. On time is important so that question may be asked and answered while we are still on that section.
