I will post these weekly. If you need another time please let me know so I can set this up

Description of Course:

This course is an introduction to concepts of plane geometry, coordinate geometry, and solid geometry. Topics include angles, parallel lines, polygons, circles, area, volume, geometric functions, graphing, and the application of each of these topics. Instruction may include, but is not limited to, the following: lecture, collaborative learning activities, technology-based activities, hands-on laboratory activities, student presentations and projects, and in- and out-of class assignments. This class will prepare you for higher levels of mathematics as well as covering topics that are on the college entrance exams. Students must have successfully completed Algebra I.

Rules & Expectations:

1. Students are expected to be on time and be ready for class.

2. Students are expected to abide by all rules as stated in the student handbook

3. Students are not allowed cell phones in class.

• Classwork is due the next day

(if late you will lose points)

o within one week it is automatically

10 points off

o After one week it is automatically

20 points off

• When absent it is your responsibility to pick up your missing work. Per the handbook you have one day per day absent to turn in missing work.

Grades and Assignments:

Tests 1-13 and midterm 50%

Quizzes 10%

Dailywork/homework 20%

Class participation 20%

Semester exam (first semester) &

EOC (second semester) of overall grade 20%

Projects will be counted as test grades

Class participation will be consisted of 20 points a day (100 a week). You will begin with 20 points and you may lose these points by not following the cell phone rule, being tardy to class, or being off task such as sleeping, talking, etc. How points can be lost:

2 points for 1st warning using cell phone in class

3 points for 2nd warning using cell phone in class

5 points for third warning using cell phone & must turn in phone to mrs.wood

5 points for being tardy

1 point for being off task
