ORMC Meetings • 2024-2025 Academic Year

Students will learn the basics of Python and get familiar with the turtle module.

Students will finish last week's packet if they haven't already, gaining an understanding of all the basics of Python as well as the Turtle module. Students will also get more involved, hands-on practice.

Students will gain a basic introduction to fractals and their properties.

Students will continue working on the fractals packet with a couple modifications.

Students will work on some fun logic puzzles

Students will learn about the basics of weak induction.

Students will continue working on the packet from last week.

Students will learn about economics and the Gini Index

Students will take part in a competition

Students will study the first chapter of Shen's book, Geometry in Problems.

Students will continue in the Geometry in Problems book with problems relating to angles.

Students will wrap up the discussion on angles before starting a study of triangles in chapter 3 of the book.

Students will continue studying the triangle inequality and solving problems around it, along with doing a review of all the material covered so far.

Students will wrap up the congruent figures chapter before moving onto examining the triangle congruence test.

Students will wrap-up with problems applying Triangle Congruence Test before moving onto studying isosceles triangles.

Students will wrap up the study of isosceles triangles before going onto the next chapter, which focuses on circles.

Students will wrap-up their study of circles before moving on to Chapter 9 (Parallel Lines). If they have additional time, they'll return to Chapter 8, which focuses on constructions.

Students will do a little review of Chapter 9 before doing our final game.

Students will finish up Chapter 9, parallel lines, before moving on to the shape-specific chapters beginning with right triangles.

Students will review a few problems from Chapter 9 before continuing with the chapters focused on shapes.

Students will finish up Chapter 11 before starting Chapter 12, the final chapter on shapes, discussing rhombi, rectangles and squares. If they have additional time they will start Chapter 13, using graph paper to prove various constructions.

Students will continue working on the final chapter on shapes, Chapter 12, before moving on to working on constructions and proof on graph paper.

Students will finish up chapter 12, the final in the series on shapes, before moving on to chapter 13, covering constructions and proofs using graph paper.

Students will continue working on (or start) Chapter 13, covering constructions, and if there is leftover time they'll move on to Chapter 14.

Students will return to triangles with Chapter 14, a chapter focused on equilateral triangles, before moving on to Chapter 15 if they finish early.

All students will finish Chapter 15, on the mid segment of a triangle, and those that finish early will start on Chapter 16, covering the Intercept Theorem.

Students will either start or continue their work with Chapter 16.

A few students will first finish chapter 16 on the Intercept Theorem, and everyone else will continue where they left off in chapters 17 & 18.

Students will finish those two chapters before moving on to reflections.

Students will wrap up Chapter 18 before moving on to 19 and 20, both of which cover various reflections and symmetries.

Students will continue where they left off, either in the reflections chapters (19/20) or starting on inscribed shapes and area (21).

Students will continue with the chapter on inscribed angles (Ch21) and continue on to other sections if they have time.

Students will finish up studying inscribed angles and move on to inscribed shapes.
