Geometry (Class 2)
Overview
Today we go over the basic procedures of the class, learn to make covers for our textbooks from a paper grocery bag (you can watch a video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CQpq1s1ZfL8), and learn about the basic building blocks of Geometry. Also, if you need some review on how to use a protractor to measure angles you can view a video at http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5243836776194014756&q=how+to+measure+with+a+protractor&total=8&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=0 and a video for naming angles at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Natupx1e8tU
