Today on 12/1 in academic we began similar triangles. We learned the similarity theorems and how they work. We went through some basic problems and then we began working on homework. I gave them some time to work on it.
On 12/4 we talked about our test on Thursday and how we will have a quiz tomorrow. We went over some earlier homework and discussed how we will review triangle similarity tomorrow. After all that we went through midsegment theorem. We went through some examples and why it worked and then they finished their homework in class.
Here are the notes.
On 12/1 in honors we went through proofs again. I gave them a worksheet to walk them through the logic of proofs and then they worked on it alone at first. After some time I allowed them to work in groups to finish it up. This was homework for Monday.
On 12/4 we talked about proofs again and then went through the proportionality theorem. We went over why it works again as well as practicing some examples of it. They will complete their last section of homework tonight. We will review on Tuesday and test on Wednesday.
