I hope everyone enjoyed their spring break! I think it was a much needed rest for students and hopefully they come back ready to finish the year strong!

We are down to our final 3 weeks of instruction before we begin station work to prepare for the EOG exams. In the next 3 weeks, we will focus on properties of circles, types of angles, ratios, and rates of change.

This week we are getting into properties of circles. Today we introduced a few vocabulary terms and practiced a couple of examples of each. Tomorrow we will continue practicing these terms and focus on finding the circumference of different circles. Below are the vocabulary terms from today

Center

Chord

Radius

Diameter

Circumference and formula to find circumference
