1. Students will describe the similarities and differences between two-column, flow chart, and paragraph proofs. 2. Students will produce two-column, flow chart, and paragraph proofs using deductive reasoning.
 * Objectives **

 **Goals** 1. Students will effectively communicate (80% proficiency) mathematically by writing geometric proofs using deductive reasoning.

 **Evaluation** Several different methods will be used to evaluate students throughout this mini-unit. 1. Students will complete HW problems after each method of geometric proof is introduced. (formative assessment) 2. Students will work in groups to complete proofs in the three different forms. 3. Students will complete a summative assessment on flow chart, two-column, and paragraph proofs. The assessment will include multiple choice, short answer, and fill-in the blank questions.

1. Introduce the lesson with book builder to help motivate students and to help them understand why we learn about Geometric Proofs. 2. Take notes on two-column, flow chart, and paragraph proofs (2 days) 3. Students will work in groups to complete proofs together (1 day) 4. Practice proofs individually (1 day) 5. Students will complete a summative assessment on flow chart, two-column, and paragraph proofs. <span style="font-family: Tahoma,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%; line-height: 1.5;">(1 day)
