Geometry Honors
Welcome to Geometry Honors at Edison Intermediate School.
General Class Information:
Introduction to Class Letter - Letter contains information about class including grading policy, resources, tips, hints, and suggestions.
List of Math Online Resources - The document contains links to all of the online resources needed to be successful in class including Google Classroom, Hangouts, Genesis, Website, and more.
Calendar:
On the right hand navigation, all homework, quizzes, and tests for the upcoming chapter are noted on the calendar. Please note that you can press forward to advance to the next month.
Textbook:
In Class, you will be receiving our textbook, Geometry for Enjoyment and Challenge, by McDougal and Littell which will be kept at home and used often throughout the year.
Supplies:
Each day, a student needs a pencil, a pen or colored pencil, a 150-250 sheet spiral notebook, and their math binder (or a section of a larger binder). At home, students need access to a graphing calculator which could be a free online one though some may purchase a graphing calculator since it will be used more often in future math courses.

Geometry Honors Course Description:
Students study concepts of Euclidean geometry through the analysis of two- and three- dimensional figures. They make, test and establish the validity of geometric conjectures using logical reasoning and deduction. The inter-disciplinary nature of mathematics is emphasized by the integration of algebra with geometric concepts, as well as applications to art and science. Topics are covered in depth, with a focus on theoretical foundations.
