When students start out with any confusion at all with converting between congruence statements and equations, they struggle through each next step all the way through proofs.  Take time to tackle this key skill before moving on.  As a geometry teacher, this pet peeve that would pop up over and over.  Eventually, I discovered that it was worth taking time to explicitly teach this skill.

Congruent or Equal? How to Teach This Important Geometry Skill

There are a lot of circle theorems, and to your high school geometry students, it probably feels like they all just blur together. To introduce new theorems in a way that students can integrate them into their conceptual understanding of how Geometry works, we can use a few strategies. To increase both deep understanding and retention (memory) of theorems, read this Math Giraffe blog post!

Teaching Geometry using the Van Hiele levels | Math Giraffe Blog
What makes geometry concepts so challenging for some students? There have been many teachers who have attempted to make the formal understanding easier with new programs and methods. ​The Van Hiele levels are based around the idea that students can understand geometry visually at a young age, then from there develop the concepts behind the properties to the point that they can first just identify, then think more abstractly about the principles.
Students solve to find missing angle measures, using algebra and geometry skills together for these challenge puzzles. This puzzle pack includes three sets. OVERVIEW of the 3 sets included: Parallel Lines & Transversals (2 versions included for easy differentiation) Triangle Theorems & Properties (4 puzzles included at different difficulty levels) Circle Theorems (4 puzzles included with a range of difficulty levels) Solving Linear Equations, Math Games For Kids, Math Lessons, Systems Of Equations, Math
