(how much do you love the dog doing a pike yoga pose above?) =)

Right Triangle Pre Test
  • (1-45) all
  • remember, we did the first 15 in class yesterday so that really only leaves you 30 problems to do for HW
  • work must be done neatly in boxes, answers highlighted
  • you are turning this in for credit so make sure it is nice and neat with your heading in the upper right hand corner
  • do not wait till the last minute to write your name at the top and staple your papers together
  • work must be in the inbox BEFORE the bell rings
  • on a separate sheet of paper, make a list of the problems you don't know how to do.  do NOT turn this in with your HW.  i repeat, make a list of the problem numbers you do not know how to do and have that out on your desk when the bell rings.
  • incidentally, let's understand what problem numbers make this "list" of questions....
  • first of all, you have to have attempted the problem
  • secondly, if after the first attempt, you didn't get it right or didn't know how to start it, you then referred to my solutions and attempted to understand my explanation
  • if after reading my solution, you still do not understand, you then call a friend for help, or go to the FB chat and ask someone....the point is that you should really make an EFFORT to try to understand the problem instead of just giving up at the onset..... 
  • remember, winners find a way.  everyone else finds an excuse.
  • who do you want to be?
Circle Test was given today!
  • if you missed it, it is YOUR responsibility to come see me BEFORE class begins to get this made up.  Once the bell rings, your opportunity to make this up ceases to exist

Circle Pre Test 3
  • (1-46) all
  • this time you are not allowed to print my test.  
  • pretend that the pre test is the test.  that means you might have to copy the problem onto your paper as you obviously would not be allowed to cut and paste my test if it were an actual test
  • complete your work in boxes
  • highlight your final answers

Circle PreTest and Solns PDF
  •  (1-46) all
  • my solutions are attached to this PDF so many of the questions you might have while doing these problems over the weekend can be answered immediately without having to wait for me to answer them on Monday
  • i HIGHLY suggest you guys start forming little "practice/study groups" as we progress through this last month of Geometry Honors
  • you should do these problems several times this weekend
  • the first time is your baseline (how you will perform on the actual test on Tuesday if you only do the pre-test once)
  •  the second time you do it, you should see an improvement in your score as well as an improvement in the amount of time it takes you to complete the pre test
  • the third time is when you should begin feeling more confidence in your understanding of the material.  you should be killing the pre test and getting at least a 90% on it
  • use my solutions as a way of grading yourself.
  • every question is worth 3 points
  • give yourself partial credit if your answer is wrong by matching up lines of your work with my work (1 or 2 points depending on how much of your work matches my work)
  • please TRY, and I mean REALLY EARNESTLY TRY, doing the problem before you just give up.  You are an HONORS student.  HONORS students don't just give up after a little bit of struggling.  We PERSEVERE.  We figure out a way.  Giving up is NOT in our DNA...
  • this is why it is a good idea to start forming "practice/study groups" as 4 heads collectively can usually come up with a solution much more frequently than 1 head
  • please have questions READY TO GO on Monday
  • don't forget to bring in your construction tools (yes, every test has a construction on it!)
  • for this test, you should know how to locate the center of a circle by construction 
Q. nth term 
  • the nth term quiz was given today
  • if you missed it, it is YOUR responsibility to see me BEFORE class begins to make this up.  once class begins, your opportunity to make this up ceases to exist
