I also thought the example problem contributed to it.]]> 2016-08-23 19:57:59 UTC https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/119465984 mheneghan1 https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120980366 Recognizing points, lines, line segments, rays, angles, and triangles, was for the most part prior knowledge, but what I found confusing about them, was the exact definition, which wasn't needed yet, but I want to know it for the test, and this does a good job giving the definitions (for some of them) in context not only to our class.]]> 2016-09-01 00:27:12 UTC https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120980366 mheneghan1 https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120981129 I can classify angles, was prior knowledge  as well. But this picture does a great job at explaining the classifications of angles, but the thing I learned that I had no idea about before was all the rules we had about straight angles, and how you can assume it is one if it looks like one.]]> 2016-09-01 00:34:49 UTC https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120981129 mheneghan1 https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120982434 Recognizing congruent angles and segments. This was harder than expected, because of the rules for what you are allowed to assume. The rules really confused me and I found this website and I think it would have helped in the past because of the example problems.

This you also could not assume, but what I didn't know until we did our notes, was that any two points are collinear points. These notes have good examples of the two, but not so good handwriting.]]> 2016-09-01 01:00:06 UTC https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120983707 mheneghan1 https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120984280 2016-09-01 01:06:27 UTC https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120984280 mheneghan1 https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120984305 Identifying when a point is between two others is easy, but trying to define it was hard. With Mrs. Kudlov's help though, the definition was much easier to produce, and on the notes we took it made sense.

We didn't use rulers and protractors, but we had to use math, to get the degrees, minutes, and seconds. But we could have used physical things if we knew the diagrams were to scale. This picture is of some of the things we could use on a to scale diagram.]]> 2016-09-01 01:10:42 UTC https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120984627 mheneghan1 https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120985039 each side of a triangle is shorter than the sum of two other sides. If it was not like that it would be impossible to be a triangle and close the polygon. This information was new to me, and the notes clarified right away when we were working on any problems to do with triangle inequality,]]> 2016-09-01 01:15:48 UTC https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120985039 mheneghan1 https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120985954 Interpreting geometric diagrams is easy. It also sounded easy when we first started doing it, but all the rules about what you can assume and what you can't. even a more simple diagram would need a proof, like one of these.]]> 2016-09-01 01:23:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120985954 mheneghan1 https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120986804 Writing a simple two column proof was totally new to me. I had never written a proof before, but it proved to be easy once I had done a few. This picture depicts a good example of a simple two column proof, it gives the given information and it shows what you can do with a more fun thing than math, donuts. ]]> 2016-09-01 01:31:41 UTC https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120986804 mheneghan1 https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120987429 This chapter was almost entirely new, and much of the information we covered was basic, but fitting for the first few weeks of school, and was still difficult because it was new. Many areas on the homework I struggled in the beginning was because of lack of diagrams and visual aids, and when I added those it clarified what I was working on and I could more easily interpret in once I had the feel for it, because I drew it. The items I choose in the portfolio were just the first ten, I choose these because they were the first ten we covered, using this to refresh my memory. Also because almost everything was new, or had a new twist on it on the whole sheet. I could have picked pretty much any number and done one of these, because I had learned something significant for every category. As well as being the first ten, they were also the most basic, helping me understand some of the harder ones later in the chapter and helping me comprehend some other learning targets.]]> 2016-09-01 01:37:33 UTC https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/120987429 akudlov https://padlet.com/mheneghan1/Fun/wish/123008340 Keep up the hard work.Nice choice of a variety of supportive examples (including your own work/notes :).
