Geometry

Using a project-based approach, this course will cover the basic properties and applications of two and three-dimensional shapes and introduce students to Euclidean logic and proof writing. Topics covered will include construction and transformation of two-dimensional objects, coordinate geometry and right-triangle trigonometry, deductive and inductive reasoning and problem solving, and much more. During the year, students will build a geometry portfolio with their projects, art-works, and geometric proofs curated from the concepts and ideas they’ve learned throughout the course. Concepts from algebra will be used, so foreknowledge of algebraic problem-solving is recommended.
