First off, I have found out that my group is teaching geometry. This is good. I really love geometry and all the practical applications in measuring and sketching. I hope the weather permits getting out of the classroom.
So anyway, the plan is to get some meter sticks, metric tape measures and graph paper and do some angle calculations and similar triangles. I love that stuff. Proportions...cross multiplications...fractions...it all ties together.
I have gotten a very nice hickory meter stick and I am seriously immersing myself in the metric system. My GPS now gives me info in kilometers. They told me in the '70s that we were going metric. I'm calling their bluff.
