This document outlines a student's geometry learning targets and activities over several days. It introduces angle measurements using a protractor and defines acute, right, and obtuse angles. Special angle types like vertical, complementary, and corresponding angles are defined. Rules for angles formed by parallel lines and transversals are developed. Activities explore the sum of interior angles in triangles and polygons.
