Why is Geometry so hard for some students? I believe it has everything to do with the large number of new vocabulary words that aren't really used outside of the Math classroom. Acute, Obtuse, Right, and Straight Angles; Parallel, Perpendicular, and Intersecting Lines; Prisms; and the list goes on. While I haven't figured out a great way for students to assign meaning to all of those words, I just love my little memory aid for remembering what Parallel lines look like.
I'm sure I'm not the first teacher to ever come up with this phrase, but I love this neat way to remember what Parallel lines look like because it's just so EASY to remember :)
The best part about it is that my students like to say it, too. It's just so darn catchy! So, every time we deal with parallel lines, I ask them what Parallel means, and they respond with the little ditty.
When my students ask, "But what about when the lines are sideways or diagonal?" I ask them what they think they can do, and they usually figure out that they can rotate their paper or tilt their head until they see the L's.
Easy-peezy!

Even if your phone is a few years old, a minimalist wallpaper can make it feel fresh and modern again. Older interfaces can look even more outdated when paired with busy, loud backgrounds — but minimalist art gives them a cleaner, more updated look.
ReplyDeleteSoft gradients, matte textures, and subtle shapes help older displays look smoother and more polished. You don’t need a brand-new phone to enjoy a stylish screen — sometimes, just changing the wallpaper is enough to completely upgrade the experience.
