Dear Students & Parents,

Welcome to Geometry! I hope that you are enjoying a relaxing and fun summer!   In Geometry, we will begin the year with a brief review of algebra. Then, we move quickly into working with lines, angles, and planes and begin to cover lots of new material from there. We also will work a lot with geometric proofs using many postulates and theorems.  In addition, there will be a heavy emphasis on applying the concepts covered to real-world situations focusing on parallelograms, triangles and circles.  The material in Geometry will be new and challenging, and we will have fun working through it together!

The supplies that are needed for Geometry are listed below. They should all be a part of your general supply list. Please bring your supplies in as soon as possible and have them all labeled with your first and last name, as well as your homeroom teacher.

* Spiral notebook.  (3-Subject)

* Pencils

* Calculator (TI-30X or anyone with Trig keys; Sin, Cos, Tan)

* Protractor / Ruler / 1/4" Graph Paper

* Organizational Binder (We will have many handouts to put in.)

I hope you enjoy your last week of summer! I look forward to meeting you soon, as we embark on an exciting year together!

Sincerely,

Mr. Kish
