Geometry- Monday, October 5

Classwork: Worked together to piece together segment addition and angle addition proofs. We had some great discussions regarding when segment addition made sense as a justification and when it did not. Construction quizzes were also returned, we ran out of time to go over the last question which we'll do tomorrow.
Homework: None, although students can always practice constructions!

Discussion Starters: Ask your student to explain the segment addition postulate. 

Science- Monday, October 5

Classwork: Students had an opportunity to review speed practice and the metric conversions to help prepare for tomorrow's quiz. Some students also began investigating the difference between displacement and distance. 
Homework: Practice for tomorrow's quiz. Students could make up their own speed problems or think of an experiment and practice identifying independent, dependent and control variables.

Discussion Starters: How confident do students feel about units of distance, time and speed?
