These are some of my favorite links:
- GEOMETRY-This is an educational web site created for high school geometry students. Basic concepts, conjectures, and theorems found in a typical geometry textbook are introduced, explained and investigated. Follow-up activities are provided to further demonstrate meanings and application of concepts. The main page is directly connected to twenty conjecture pages. Each conjecture has its own page with activity sheet sheets for interested students. The conjectures can be used both as a student or teacher resource. I use these conjectures as an introductory to new concepts or activities for reinforcement activities already covered. Geometry sketchpad is a requirement to run the conjectures.
- MATH-This site is published by the Fairfax County Public Schools. The site provides links for high school math students that are interactive and usually written in Java. Java is a programming language that allows the user to input data, control diagrams by dragging and rotating and even play games. The interactive Math links covers Algebra, Geometry,Trig,Pre calculus, Calculus,Statistics,Applications, Optical Illusions, Just for Fun, SOL/SAT Prep. This site can be used as a teacher or student resource center.
- DICTIONARY OF MATH TERMS- This educational web site contains a glossary(dictionary) of most of the words you will use in geometry. You will see some algebra terms and some trigonometry terms. The site arranges the terms in alphabetical order from A-Z. The site is broken down so that you can access the terms quickly based on their first letter. It gives you a listing of the terms and a brief explanation of their meaning. This site can be used as a teacher or student resource center. I have found this site to be the most productive out of all the sites.
- MATH CLIP ART- This is one of the best web sites for math clip art. There are over 3100 characters to select from.
- THREE DIMENSIONAL DRAWINGS-This site provides the viewer with a first glance, in depth, examples and workout of the many different theorems related to geometry. I particularly like the information and drawing on solid geometry. There are very few sites that are able to provide drawings and information on three-dimensional drawings.
