Monday 4/28

Today we held a class discuss on what it means to be congruent and what it means to be similar, forming very specific definitions for each.

We also looked closely at the standards for these two concepts, making sure that we all understood them fully in preparation for Friday's Common Assessment #8.

8.G.2: Understand that a two-dimensional figure is congruent to another if the second can be obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, and translations; given two congruent figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the congruence between them.

8.G.4: Understand that a two-dimensional figure is similar to another if the second can be obtained from the first by a sequence of rotations, reflections, translations, and dilations; given two similar two-dimensional figures, describe a sequence that exhibits the similarity between them.

We also started a transformations activity around Ms. Pac-Man that we'll continue tomorrow.

There is no homework.

Friday 4/11

Thanks for begin so great while I was away. Enjoy your weekend!

Monday 4/7

Today, you thought about and discovered congruence with Notes #58.

Today's lesson was a bit different than usual, as it primarily consisted of questions designed to guide you towards some important conclusions. Some questions have specific answers, some were more open-ended. We didn't finish the last couple of tasks in class today, so be sure to open the notes from the website and complete the last few parts.

On your homework, be sure to describe the sequences of transformations necessary to prove congruence.
