Course Syllabus – Geometry, 2011-2012
Mrs Rachael Gulley
Email: rgulley@rahway.net
What is geometry?
Geometry is the study of points, angles, lines, and figures and how they
relate to o another. Geometry is used in a variety of fields.
Electricians, architects, plumbers, sculptors, carpenters, landscapers,
and clothing designers are among the many professionals who use geometry
regularly in their career.
Chapter 1 begins with the basic terms and definitions.
Chapter 2 introduces the logic and reasonused throughout the course.
Chapters 3 through 5 combine geometric concepts in a study of
two-dimensional figures.
Chapters 6 and 7 develop the concepts involving three-dimensional figures.
The rest of the course focuses on similarity, circles and basic
trigonometry.
Using pictures to represent a problem is an important mathematical skill.
Geometry will help students develop this skill as well as hone
mathematical reasoning skills.
Homework is an important element in this course. In addition to helping
students practice content learned in class, homework serves as an ongoing
review.
Students who do daily homework naturally perform better on tests than
those who do not make it a priority. Also, students with parents who take
an interest in their mathematical studies tend to do better in
mathematics.
Note to parents: Please email me at rgulley@rahway.net. This way we can
establish a way to easily communicate and therefore work together on
helping your child achieve their potential in this subject.
SUPPLIES
(Part of the requirement for obtaining the daily class grade)
Agenda, Ruler, Compass, Protractor
2 pens (black or blue), 2 pencils w/erasers

ABSENCES
All work must be made up after absence from class to avoid a zero grade.
Students are responsible to ask another student for the notes and/or
homework assignment missed.
In addition students may make an appointment to see me after school for
extra help or to discuss work missed.
GRADING POLICY
Tests (40%) - May include unit/chapter tests, quizzes, and long-term
projects
