• • The Open University - Geometry - This is a good site to teach and then give practice problems.

  • Math.com - Geometry - Good site with practice quizzes at the end of each unit.

You may also use my website (sites.google.com/site/jrhalesite/) and look over the Math Review sections. Even if you review the Algebra I section to help keep your skills up would be very helpful. You needs to spread out the work and do a little each day to help keep focused, 10 to 15 minutes each day is all that is needed.
