At My Pace (AMP) Geometry Course Descriptions
Geometry includes all topics in a typical high school geometry course along with formal proofs. Students learn how to apply and calculate measurements of length, height, circumference, area, and volume. In addition, students build on this inductive foundation by developing and applying logical deductive thought to develop proof patterns and mathematical arguments. Through guided discovery, the student will work with key geometry theorems and proofs with focus on the development of critical thinking skills.
AMP Geometry Course A ($325): Topics include foundations of Geometry (lines, angles, congruence) , geometric reasoning, transformations, parallel and perpendicular lines, triangle congruence, and properties and attributes of triangles.
AMP Geometry Course B ($325): Topics include polygons and quadrilaterals, similarity, right triangles and trigonometry, perimeter, circumference, area, circles, and spatial reasoning.
Important: Geometry includes a review of basic algebra skills throughout the year and is designed to be taken between the two Algebra courses. The material in Algebra II should be freshly taught to a student entering Pre-Calculus; going from Geometry to Pre-Calculus could be a difficult transition. Thus, HSML strongly recommends the following order of courses: Algebra I - Geometry - Algebra II - Pre-Calculus. It is an option for a student to take Geometry and Algebra II concurrently if their schedule allows for a heavy math year.

Geometry Course Preparedness Document
High School Math Live wants your student to be placed in the appropriate AMP course so that they will be successful and challenged while learning the beauty of mathematics. Each of our subjects have a PDF document that contains questions we believe will be a good indicator of whether your student is ready for each subject. Although it is not required that your student complete these problems, it is a helpful tool that we have prepared for you to use. Click to see our Geometry Course Preparedness Document.
