- Description
- Curriculum
This full-year high school Geometry course develops essential mathematical thinking and spatial reasoning skills. Students will explore points, lines, angles, triangles, circles, transformations, and proofs through engaging lessons and real-world applications.
Using a hybrid model, students will participate in weekly lectures, interactive lab activities, and self-paced learning. Collaboration, inquiry-based learning, and critical thinking will be emphasized to prepare students for higher-level math and real-world problem-solving.
This course satisfies 1 full Math credit for high school students enrolled in Àbulę’s Accredited Program.
This course is designed for high school students. Middle school students who feel academically prepared may request to enroll, but approval from a parent and advisor is required.
📚 How Geometry Hybrid Courses Work
Geometry students will blend independent work with live support and group activities. Here’s what to expect:
- 📖 Lessons (Independent Learning): Complete self-paced readings, videos, and practice problems before live sessions.
- 👩🏽🏫 Lecture (Mondays): Attend live to review concepts, see examples, and ask questions.
- 🔧 Lab (Tuesdays): Participate in problem-solving sessions and collaborative exercises to deepen understanding.
📅 Semester Schedule
- Fall Semester: August 18 – December 19
- Spring Semester: January 12 – May 27
🕒 Weekly Live Meeting Times
All live sessions meet at the following time each week:
