Basic Info for this Year's Class

Class: Geometry

Instructor: Catherine Jaime
Grades/Ages: High School
Day: Tuesdays (beginning 2nd Tuesday in September)
Time: 2:30 - 4:00 p.m.

Class Description: We will be using GeometryVideoText for this. The plan is to get through the first 3 modules (A, B, C) this school year. In order to do that, we will need to average 3 lessons/week. It will be an agressive schedule, but if students keep up on their homework, and attend classes regularly they should be able to keep up.

Fees: After purchasing the program, I have had to change the fees slightly for this program. I apologize for any inconvenience. I had planned to charge a registration fee to help cover the costs of the program, but families are going to need to purchase the student materials themselves, so I am raising the monthly cost to $25(instead of $20) and dropping the registration fee.

During the course of the school year, each student will need the Student WorkText and the Progress Tests ($20 each for each of the 3 levels). They also recomend the Course Notes, but that is up to you. You may want to look at mine before you decide. ($17 for each level). It should take us about 2 1/2 months to go through each level, if you want to space out those purchases. You will need to go to the VideoText website to order the materials: http://www.videotext.com/catalog.htm. Scroll down to where it says Extra Materials. Be sure to order the Geometry and not the Algebra! (I considered ordering them as a group, but the prices on the website include shipping, so it wouldn't save us anything.)
