 2116 East Haines Street Philadelphia, PA 19138 267-336-2730 Course: Math Enrichment C Geometry (half year, 0.5 credits) Term: 2010-2011 Semester 1 Teacher: Mr. Bujak Room: 106 E-mail: [email protected] Phone: 267-336-2730 ext. 5612 “The person who does the work is the only one who learns.” —from The First Days of School by Harry K. Wong and Rosemary Tripi Wong COURSE OVERVIEW This course is required for all students who are at least two grades behind in mathematics. The purpose of the course is to develop skills of the students and prepare students for higher level mathematics courses. Many basic concepts, which are essential for students to experience success in Algebra 1, Geometry, and Algebra 2, are addressed in this course. COURSE OBJECTIVES Our shared goal for this course is for each student to meet or exceed the objectives presented in the Pennsylvania Academic Standards for Mathematics. These standards may be accessed on the Web at http://www.pdesas.org . This course will equip students with a solid foundation in problem-solving and critical thinking for success in future mathematics courses. We shall be using Saxon Secondary Mathematics which is structured to help every student achieve success. The incremental development and continued practice and review provide the time needed to m aster each concept. This lesson/practice/probl em set is consistent. Meaningful connections and real-world applications build a solid foundation and confidence to continue taking mathematics courses. THE SAXON PHILOSOPHY “We believe that students learn by doing. Students learn mathematics not by watching or listening to someone else, but by doing the problems themselves. We also believe mathematics is not difficult, just different. In our programs, mathematics is taught (and learned) just as a foreign language or musical instrument is taught: incrementally with continual practice and review.” TEXTBOOK Saxon Geometry – Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, 2009
