    Worth it!
    Review by Sam
    This is not your typical Geometry course and that is what we have loved about it. It really challenges your student with logic/reasoning/critical thinking skills, which is not something I was expecting for my son to get from this course, but I am so glad he did. We use a more classical education approach to homeschooling, so over the years he has done traditional logic courses and that area still challenged him in a good way. Outside of that, this course is very thorough. We also used the academy videos, which I feel really helped my son to get better understanding in areas where he did grasp the concept as quickly and he still aced every test. I also really love the addition of the tests within the academy course. I do believe this course with thoroughly prepare your students for college prep exams if that is there route, while also providing lots of real word application and critical thinking skills.
    Homeschool geometry
    Review by Barbara D
    I was a little nervous looking at geometry for my kid who is not good at math, but this is very practical with some mathematical history thrown in. Not only is the student learning the math but the why behind it and the how. I like it much better than what I had used being homeschooled.
    The student book has all the text and select answers. The Teacher Guide has the schedule, tests, and exam. The solution manual has all the answers.
    Geometry continues where Algebra left off with practical Geometry. Not math just to do math, but explaining the why behind the math and solving problems. Designed and set for the homeschooler. A great course for a homeschooled high schooler, especially one that's college bound.
    Interesting and practical geometry course
    Review by Stephanie
    Jacobs’ Geometry is not your usual boring geometry class. The lessons include comics, interesting facts and graphics, and helpful diagrams and examples. There are 16 chapters in the textbook. Each chapter ends with a summary and review questions, followed by algebra review. The exercises are made up of three sets of questions. The back of the textbook contains a helpful glossary, list of postulates and theorems, and answers to selected exercises. We appreciate that this curriculum is interesting and the lessons and problems involve real world situations and applications.

    The Geometry Teacher Guide is helpful and lays out a schedule to complete the course in 180 days / 36 weeks. It also contains a glossary with diagrams and a list of postulates and theorems. The teacher guide also contains chapter, mid-term and final tests, as well as the answers for those tests.

    The Geometry Solutions Manual contains solutions for all of the exercises in the Geometry textbook. It does not include the solutions for the tests as they are in the Geometry Teacher Guide. I think it’s a helpful and essential component of the Geometry course.
    Programa muy completo.
    Review by Gabi
    El programa es muy completo, y el conjunto 2 y 3 de cada leccion trae desafios interesantes y desafiantes. Es bastante exigente. lo recomiendo para chicos que le gustan las matematicas y no tienen grandes dificultades. Pueden avanzar solos sin demasiada intervencion de los educadores.
    Not for my son
    Review by Kk
    This was not a great choice for my son. He struggles in math ama this was not a good fit. We started our pretty good doing all 3 sets but now over half way and we do set 1 only.
    Tough but strengthened critical thinking skills
    Review by Zero2Five Family
    This curriculum was TOUGH! To be fair, Geometry itself is tough. However, I still believe this curriculum deserves 5 stars because it really strengthened my student's critical thinking skills. It required him to think outside the box and problem solve in a way he never had before. This will help him in many areas of life, not just math. We did slow down the pace so that it wasn't too overwhelming. Master Books Academy also has lessons to correspond with this course but we did not need or use them because my student has very strong math skills. When my younger girls get to this course, we most definitely will invest in the Master Books Academy course for this curriculum
    Not our favorite subject
    Review by TM
    The curriculum is well made, but it just wasn't for us. It is very definition heavy.
    Very thorough & comprehensive
    Review by Andrea
    Math is not my daughter's strongest subject and yet her final test score was an 80%. My son (who pulls A's in math) started geometry this year and although a bit challenging he is making low A's. I strongly encourage to purchase the teaching course through the Academy
    Mixed Feelings abou this curriculum
    Review by SA
    I have mixed feelings about this curriculum. Part of our dissatification and struggle with Jacob's Math is my fault. I learn by doing. My daughter, who I bought this for, learns by reading. This is NOT a typical Math currciulum where you read the text, read the examples, and then practice what you learn. Rather this is a learn (and discover) by doing. There is some reading of concepts, however most of the learning happens within the practice problems. My daughter, who is a complete independent learner, needed my help with this curriculum every single day. It took us hours to figure out the problems working backwards from the answers. I failed in my responsibility to understand her learning style and realize this wouldn't work for her. If your students need thorough instructions, this is not the curriculum for them. If your students are self-teaching AND love to "discover" Math patterns, this might be the perfect curriculum for them. I will add, this is the same review that I will be posting for the Jacobs Algebra because it has the same teaching style and my eighth grader wasn't able to finish that curriculum due to the lack of instructions.
    Couldn't Be Happier!
    Review by Dan
    Jacobs Geometry was our "Take 2" after a different (sub-par) curriculum we began. Even for getting a late start, we were able to catch up and keep on schedule for the remainder of the year! The information is presented in a logical (and often funny) way, allowing ample time to learn the building-block-skills needed for a course such as this. It's incredibly thorough, with a few out-of-the-box concepts that make for a unique journey through the subject matter. It's listed as a grade 9-12 curriculum - however geometry is geometry; the concepts are the same no matter what grade it is learned. We studied this for 11th grade math, after Algebra 2, and were happy to have already had an introduction to the sine/cosine/tangent concepts that were integrated into this book. At the same time, those concepts were explained easily enough to be introduced through this program. All in all, we're incredibly pleased, and give kudos to Harold Jacobs for all of the excellence that he put into it. Highly recommend!!
