=
C **PM Geometry Connections** is similar to lab work. You will be learning actively and be responsible for investigations and constructing knowledge. There will be less emphasis on regurgitation of facts. Your teacher will act as a guide as you probe your own thinking, so that you may use these applications outside of our classroom. =====

=

 * You will be working in study teams**, so you must learn cooperation skills. There are four group roles: Resource Manager, Facilitator, Rcorder/Reporter, and Task Manager, which will be discussed later in detail. These groups are non-negotiable. You must find a balance, and use each other as strong resources. Each member will be evaluated by the group and by the teacher.=====

Instruction will be in the form of a **binder**, so that you may write on the notes. Homework consists of a lot of spiraling, so concepts will keep showing up. Assessments also include individual tests and quizzes, group evaluations, quarterly projects and learning logs/blogs. = Procedures and Expectations: =
 * 1) ====== Be present and on time – In order for students to learn they must be present and on time. If a student cannot be in class, they are responsible for the class work and any assignments that were missed. Obtain homework assignments from the web or a team member. One day extension for each day absent. ======
 * 2) ====== **Be prepared** – Students need to come to class prepared with any materials that are necessary for learning (Writing Utensil, Binder…). Being prepared also means coming to class with //completed// homework or assignments that are due that day. ======
 * 3) **Be respectful and cooperative** – Students are expected to respect and cooperate with one another as well as their teacher.
 * 4) **All school rules as stated in the student handbook will be enforced in the classroom**
