[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Geometry is included in every ES grade spiral. They have a place on the report card for it and you can see specific questions on the SOLs that deal with geometry. [/quote] [b]What passes for geometry is included[/b]. [b]Believe me, they are not doing anything resembling geometry. Classifying shapes as triangles and squares and counting polygons by their number of sides is NOT what geometry is.[/b][/quote] My third grader was doing things with area, angles and the like last year. I am not going to argue that it is an amazing approach but they are doing more then shape recognition and counting sides. [/quote] I agree with the 2nd poster. This is what I saw at my DC's elementary (in McLean) for 6 years. Believe me, they did NOT do anything resembling geometry. Also, want to add that DC was in AAP program! [/quote]
