Credit Recovery - Geometry - Semester 1 (Darin Glotz)*
High School K205 - Blended Classroom
This course runs concurrently with other math credit recovery classes.
Geometry includes all Euclidean geometric concepts. Students will develop a familiarity with plane geometry, including: points, lines, planes, and geometric shapes, and the transformations, constructions, comparisons, and measurements of these shapes. Students will also develop their understanding of and ability to construct formal logical arguments and proofs, within a geometric setting. In addition to these concepts, students will apply previously learned Algebraic skills within the context of geometric problems and reasoning
