Geometry Tutoring Schedule Tuesday/Thursday Tutoring
Hello! Welcome to Geometry. You will find a list of all of your assignments here, as well as some information about our tutoring.
We are using the Geometry Concepts and Skills text by Holt McDougal. Your book may seem complicated. Don't worry, though, your tutor will be there every step of the way. And by the end of the year, you will be a Geometry expert.
You need to get a ruler, a compass, and a protractor for this class. Toys always make class more fun!
How the tutoring works.
You will log on to Skype twice a week to meet with your tutor and your four student peers. The days and times will be the same every week.
From Skype, we will all head over to Scribblar to practice our lesson. Before the first session, you will receive an invitation to Scribblar through your email.
You need to save this invitation! Every day we meet online, you will use this link to go to Scribblar – please don't lose this link!
On the days that we don't meet online, you will have a few problems from the book to practice with. These problems are odd numbered, and you can check the answers you get in the back of the book.
If you get an answer wrong, rework that problem and try to figure out what went wrong. If you still can't figure it out, then ask your tutor about that problem the next time you meet.
This is important! Always ask your tutor about problems you don't understand!
Every Monday you will submit an email quiz to your tutor. The quiz problems come from the book, and cover the material you learned during the week.
A note about the quizzes.
Please email the answers to the weekly quiz to your tutor.
First, type the page number, then the problem number. Then type the answer to the problem next to it.
For example, if the quiz consists of page 212, numbers 6, 12, and 22,
then your email would look like this -
Hello (Tutor's Name),
Here is my quiz for this week.
Page 212
6. 248
12. 18 dozen
22. 652 cubic inches
Your wonderful student,
(Your Name)
All of your email quizzes will follow this format.
Some tutoring Rules
1. Absolutely no texting, cell phones, internet browsing, or video viewing, etc., while we are in tutoring! Your attention should be focused on your lesson the entire 45 minutes we are in tutoring.
2. Your parents are welcome and encouraged to attend tutoring with you (they might want to learn Geometry as much as you do)!
3. No cheating! Not ever! Math makes your mind strong and clever, unless you cheat and let someone else do your work for you. Please don't do that to yourself.
Also, if you cheat, we will have to give your spot to another student who is waiting to get into the program (and we would miss you!).
4. You must do every problem listed on your home days. Every time.
5. Math is awesome! Yes, this is a rule.
About your assignments.
The assignments that you complete on the “Home” days are designed to help you really learn the math idea we are working on, and also for you to give to the teacher that oversees your homeschooling.
Unlike the email quizzes, you will write out the problem on your paper, show all your of work step-by-step, then write your answer. If the instructions call for using “Mental Math”, write out the problem step-by-step, just like you would for all your other problems.
It is very important that you write every step in the problem! We will practice this during our “Online” days, but make sure to do this on your own, as well.
OK. That's it. Here we go!

Friday 6/6 - No Practice Problems! Have a wonderful Summer!
We are using the Geometry Concepts and Skills text by Holt McDougal. Your book may seem complicated. Don't worry, though, your tutor will be there every step of the way. And by the end of the year, you will be a Geometry expert.
You need to get a ruler, a compass, and a protractor for this class. Toys always make class more fun!
How the tutoring works.
You will log on to Skype twice a week to meet with your tutor and your four student peers. The days and times will be the same every week.
From Skype, we will all head over to Scribblar to practice our lesson. Before the first session, you will receive an invitation to Scribblar through your email.
You need to save this invitation! Every day we meet online, you will use this link to go to Scribblar – please don't lose this link!
On the days that we don't meet online, you will have a few problems from the book to practice with. These problems are odd numbered, and you can check the answers you get in the back of the book.
If you get an answer wrong, rework that problem and try to figure out what went wrong. If you still can't figure it out, then ask your tutor about that problem the next time you meet.
This is important! Always ask your tutor about problems you don't understand!
Every Monday you will submit an email quiz to your tutor. The quiz problems come from the book, and cover the material you learned during the week.
A note about the quizzes.
Please email the answers to the weekly quiz to your tutor.
First, type the page number, then the problem number. Then type the answer to the problem next to it.
For example, if the quiz consists of page 212, numbers 6, 12, and 22,
then your email would look like this -
Hello (Tutor's Name),
Here is my quiz for this week.
Page 212
6. 248
12. 18 dozen
22. 652 cubic inches
Your wonderful student,
(Your Name)
All of your email quizzes will follow this format.
Some tutoring Rules
1. Absolutely no texting, cell phones, internet browsing, or video viewing, etc., while we are in tutoring! Your attention should be focused on your lesson the entire 45 minutes we are in tutoring.
2. Your parents are welcome and encouraged to attend tutoring with you (they might want to learn Geometry as much as you do)!
3. No cheating! Not ever! Math makes your mind strong and clever, unless you cheat and let someone else do your work for you. Please don't do that to yourself.
Also, if you cheat, we will have to give your spot to another student who is waiting to get into the program (and we would miss you!).
4. You must do every problem listed on your home days. Every time.
5. Math is awesome! Yes, this is a rule.
About your assignments.
The assignments that you complete on the “Home” days are designed to help you really learn the math idea we are working on, and also for you to give to the teacher that oversees your homeschooling.
Unlike the email quizzes, you will write out the problem on your paper, show all your of work step-by-step, then write your answer. If the instructions call for using “Mental Math”, write out the problem step-by-step, just like you would for all your other problems.
It is very important that you write every step in the problem! We will practice this during our “Online” days, but make sure to do this on your own, as well.
OK. That's it. Here we go!
