Course Description
This is an
online course designed as a supplemental element for 4th through 6th
grade students that are learning or need extra support in the area of geometry.
This course will cover basic elements of geometry. The class will focus on the
elements of measurement, perimeter, area, and volume. Students will cover basic
polygons and move into applying their skills to complex shapes.
Intended Learners
Students
that will benefit most from this course are students that are in need of extra
support in geometry. Students in this course must have a basic understanding of
mathematical processes and need more practice and instruction in geometry.
Students must have access to the online portal after school and at home.
Duration
This course
is designed to be completed in one 4 week session. The course will include four
units with one unit being covered each week. The course dates will vary based on your schools track calender. Please reference the district calenders. Traditional tracks will begin before spring break and resume after students return. 2012-2013 School Year Calender
Course Goals
This course
will teach students to identify different parts of shapes including length,
width, and height. Skills will be applied to the formulas for perimeter, area,
and volume. This course will build on skills taught, and will improve student
understanding of geometric shapes and properties. At the end of the course
students will have a strong grasp on mathematic formulas and processes needed
to determine perimeter, area, and volume of basic and complex polygons.
Learner Objectives
Upon the
completion of the Geometry Support course, students will be able to:
·
Measure
and label lengths of two dimensional shapes
·
Use
the proper formula to correctly calculate perimeter
·
Use
the proper formula to correctly calculate area
·
Identify
and label the length width and height of three dimensional figures.
·
Use the proper formula to correctly calculate
volume
·
Apply
knowledge of perimeter, area, and volume to basic and complex shapes
