The Course Outline

Picture
      Below is a general listing of units of study that a Geometry student will learn in this Regents-level course. The order of topics are not necessarily in order, as all districts design their own curriculum.
1. Constructions & Euclidean Geometry Vocabulary
2. Angle & Segment Relationships
3. Introduction to Proofs & Congruent Triangles
4. Quadrilaterals
5. Similar Figures & Trigonometry
6. Transformational Geometry
7. Coordinate Geometry & Proofs within the Plane
8. 3-Dimensional Figures
 9. Circles

The Standards & Regents Exam Design

      Attached are the New York State standards for Geometry (Common Core). These standards show the old standards, and the soon-to-be Next Generation Learning Standards for New York State Geometry.
NYS Geometry (Common Core) Standards
      The Regents Examination in Geometry (Common Core) has a total of 35 questions:
Picture
Part I (48 Points): 24 Multiple Choice Questions
Part II (14 Points): 7 Short-Sized Extended Response Questions
Part III (12 Points): 3 Medium-Sized Extended Response Questions
Part IV (6 Points): 1 Long-Sized Extended Response Question 
      The exam has a raw score of 80 points, where the passing raw score can range between 31 and 36 points. It depends on the conversion chart from year-to-year. This raw score is then converted to a final score graded out of 100 possible points, where a 65 is standard passing score and any grade 85 or above is mastery.
      The exam consists of a wide range of topics, each broken down by a percentage, as shown in the table below.

The General Course Description

           The fundamental purpose of the course in Geometry is to formalize and extend students’ geometric experiences from the middle grades. Students explore more complex geometric situations and deepen their explanations of geometric relationships, moving towards formal mathematical arguments. Important differences exist between this Geometry course and the historical approach taken in Geometry classes. For example, transformations are emphasized early in this course. Close attention should be paid to the introductory content for the Geometry conceptual category found in the high school Common Core State Standards. The 8 mathematical practice standards apply throughout each course and, together with the content standards, prescribe that students experience mathematics as a coherent, useful, and logical subject that makes use of their ability to make sense of problem situations. All students will take the Geometry regents in June. Successful passing of the New York State Geometry Regents Exam in June satisfies, in part, the requirement of passing 3 Math regents exams for an Advanced Regents diploma.

ABOUT US

NYS Mathematics Regents Preparation was founded in August of 2016 by Trevor Clark.  For the last six years, Trevor has been tutoring high school mathematics in Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, & Pre-Calculus. He graduated from Binghamton University, The State University of New York, with a B.A. in Mathematical Sciences. He then plans to attend Queens College, The City University of New York to earn a MAT in Secondary Mathematics Education. Once certified,  he will then pursue a career in secondary education as a high school mathematics teacher and hopes that he has an everlasting impact on his future students.
