Geometry Honors

Geometry Honors provides students with more challenging, in depth experiences that deepen the understanding of two and three-dimensional objects and their properties. Deductive and inductive reasoning as well as investigative strategies in drawing conclusions are stressed. Properties and relationships of geometric objects include the study of: (1) points, lines, angles and planes; (2) polygons, with a special focus on quadrilaterals, triangles, and right triangles; (3) circles; and (4) polyhedra and other solids. An understanding of proof and logic is developed. Computer drawing programs will be used. Appropriate technology, including graphing calculators and application software, will be used in instruction and assessment.

Required Materials

The following items need to be brought to class each day.

2 in, 3-ring binder or one subject spiral notebook with holes
Folder (in binder)
TI-84 Calculators*
Macbook or iPad (School Issued)

AP Statistics

AP Statistics is a college level course and is taught in preparation for the AP exam which may result in college credit. This course will introduce students to the major concepts and tools for collecting, analyzing, and drawing conclusions from data. Students are exposed to four broad conceptual themes: Exploring Data, Sampling and Experimentation, Anticipating Patterns, and Statistical Inference. The completion of a summer assignment is required. This course meets the third year of math graduation requirement upon completion of Geometry and Algebra II.

Statistics

This course is designed as an introduction to statistics and data analysis. It will build on prior knowledge that students have gained in their previous math courses. This course will engage students in practical data analysis and graphs using real world examples, encouraging students to think statistically and see its relevance in everyday life. This course meets the third year of math graduation requirement upon completion of Geometry and Algebra II.
