Try understanding the concepts and applying them with lots of practice problems! Grab a textbook because the teacher does not really give out notes. They expect you to make your own, so learn how to take good notes. Geometry is different than Algebra because you are applying different theorems to solve out problems like the angle of ____. So it’s good to get lots of practice so you can do well on proofs (practice a lot for this one)! Ask questions in class or meet up with the teacher during advisory. Try making mutual friends with class mates, and help each other out!

MEMORIZE!!!! Don't ignore that part of the class. There are true and false questions on every test and that can either make or break your grade.

You have to review EVERYTHING. It's all fair game on the tests and quizzes. (and I mean everything). They are known to put tiny little things on the assessments that can make or break your grade. Go to Mrs. Hand if you need extra help. She'll always be available.
