Geometry- Monday, September 28

Classwork: Investigated constructions of parallel lines and perpendicular bisectors.

Homework: Practice #1-4

Discussion Starters:How might being able to construct parallel or perpendicular lines help you to construct other geometric shapes, such as squares, rhombuses, rectangles & parallelograms?

Science- Monday, September 28

Classwork: Students investigated the impact of controlling variables while experimenting with changing the steepness of a track and speed of a car.

Homework: None

Discussion Starters: Think of a problem you've had to solve at home, at work or anywhere, when changing only one variable at a time was necessary in order to pinpoint the problem. For example, if a lamp stopped working you might first check the bulb, then the outlet, then the circuit breaker. Discuss the importance of only manipulating one variable at a time.
