Subject: Re: Sequence for Alg II and Geometry

	
I have taught in two different high schools that go in sequence of Alg
I, Geometry, Alg II.  They key that I have found is to integrate
algebra problems within the Geometry.  This keeps the alg skills up
while students are learning about Geometry.  Its not hard to do: When
teaching angles, create alg problems.  ex: 2x + 7x = 90 complimentry
angles.

Its a matter of making a point of integration it as you go and making
an effort to create alg problems as you go.  Each year you slowly
build your amount of questions and then you have a program that has
alg in your geometry.
