Geometry Connections

*Geometry Connections* is the second in a five-year sequence of college preparatory mathematics courses. It emphasizes several big ideas in an integrated algebra/geometry context. The key concepts addressed in this course are:

* Transformations (reflection, rotation, translation, dilation) and symmetry
* Relationships between figures (such as similarity and congruence)
* Properties of plane figures (such as equal or perpendicular sides or diagonals)
* Measurements of plane figures (such as area, perimeter, and angle measure)
* Measurements of three-dimensional shapes (such as volume and surface area)
* Tools for analyzing and measuring shapes (such as the Pythagorean Theorem, trigonometric ratios, the Laws of Sines and Cosines, and coordinate geometry)
* Investigation and proof (having found patterns, students conjecture and prove)
* Geometric construction (with compass and straightedge)
* Algebra (with substantial review of writing and solving equations and graphing)
* Probability

The course is structured around problems and investigations that build spatial visualization skills, conceptual understanding of geometry topics, and an awareness of connections between different ideas. Students are encouraged to investigate, conjecture, and then prove to develop their reasoning skills.

Lessons are structured for students to collaborate actively by working in study teams. During class time, students work in study teams on challenging problems that introduce new material. In several circumstances, an investigation or challenge will be presented with a Task Statement and Further Guidance structure. These activities are designed to provide teachers with the freedom of deciding how structured or open to leave a mathematical challenge.

The homework in the "Review & Preview" section of each lesson reinforces previously-learned skills and concepts and prepares students for new ones. The homework problems also allow students to apply previously-learned concepts and skills in new contexts and deepen their understanding by solving the same type of problem in different ways.

### **Early life and backgrounds**

Thorvard is a smart witted, independent male Viking sailor. Born in his home country Norway, 964 CE, at a young age he showed the strength to persevere on through hard times which eventually lead to him courageously battling storms with his ship.  At around the age of 23, Thorvard got married to Freydis Eriksson, Daughter of Erik the Red, of the Vikings. He seeks to help his wife to explore and adventure to new places around the world with a willing crew by his side.

### **Role in the Story**

Thorvard’s role in *They came on Viking Ships*  is to be a supporting character to his wife, Freydis as she tries to overcome the barriers of woman rights. He always goes with Freydis when its related to sailing across the ocean and he tries to protect her the best he can.

Thorvard was introduced to Hekja when she first boarded the Viking ship. He introduced to her to the different things around the Viking settlement in Greenland. Thorvard had also laughed at Hekja when she had said that as Snarf would protect her, she would protect him. Hekja hadn’t understood why Thorvard had laughed but lead her to finally agreeing with Thorvard and Freydis that Snarf was her own.

Throughout the novel, Thorvard is shown as a courageous character who would do anything to protect his family, he is a loving person to his wife, son and Hekja and ignores any backlash comments thrown to him by Erik the Red which shows that he is brave enough to bypass these comments and just believe in his crew, family and himself. Thorvard is willing to do anything for the sake of his family and crew.

### **Character Development**

As the novel continues, Thorvard starts to change his beliefs about thralls, his feelings start to grow warmer to Hekja and he starts to see her as more than a Thrall. At the end of the book he accepts Hekja like they are family and becomes more like a fatherly figure to Hekja as she was adopted by Freydis and Thorvard.

### **Relatives**

Thorvard’s close family consists of, Freydis Eriksson (his wife) , Thorvald Eriksson (son) and Hekja (adopted daughter). His extended family is made up of Father in law, Erik The red (deceased) and his brother in law ,Leif Eriksson.

Snarf's Mother

Snarf's Mother is a character in the historical novel "They Came on Viking Ships" written by the acclaimed Australian author Jackie French.

## Overview

Snarf's Mother is a Viking dog, owned by the chieftain of the Viking tribe. She is characterized by her loyalty, strength, and protectiveness - traits typically esteemed in Viking culture.

Snarf's Mother also serves as a powerful symbol of Viking society's respect for dogs and their essential roles in hunting, herding, and protection. She reflects the culture's belief in dogs as spiritual beings, often seen as guides to the afterlife, in keeping with Norse mythology.

## Symbolism and Significance

Beyond her literal role, Snarf's Mother holds considerable symbolic weight in the narrative. She embodies the fierce protectiveness and loyalty valued in the Viking society, mirrored not only in their dogs but also in their warriors and family structures. Her strength and presence signify the deep connection between the Vikings and their canine companions, painting a more nuanced picture of Viking life and values.

Arnkel the Strong Hand

AI Interpretation of Arnkel the Strong Hand

**Arnkel the Strong Hand** is a minor character in the book *They Came on Viking Ships* by Australian author Jackie French. Arnkel the Strong Hand is known to make very tight haystacks.

#### **Character Analysis**

Arnkel the Strong Hand does not have a line of speech in the book. An action that he takes is when he created the tight haystacks. Based on how he acts, Arnkel the Strong Hand probably appears as a strong character. In the book, he does not interact with any other characters but because he is referred to as “Erik’s man”, this indicates that he interacts with Erik the Red.

#### **Character Information**

There is not much information about Arnkel the Strong Hand. He is referred to as “Erik’s Man”, which shows that he is probably Erik’s friend. Arnkel the Strong Hand seems like a person who won’t give up until it is perfect. An example of this is when he creates haystacks so tight that water flowed off it and the hay inside stays dry and sweet. This shows that Arnkel the Strong Hand will not stop until the haystack is perfect. This is inspiring to many young people looking up to others.

#### **Significance**

While Arnkel the Strong Hand is not a well-known character to those who have read the book, he plays a slightly significant role in the story. His character represents patience and persistence which is shown by the fact that he makes extremely tight haybales. To do this, he must have a lot of patience and persistence. This is also shown in other characters, one of them being Freydis, who, despite being a female Viking, she doesn’t give up when she is travelling to Vinland although many of the groups opted out when they heard that the captain would be a female. She also strives to be just as good as the male Vikings. This behavior is also shown in Arnkel the Strong Hand.

Thrand Egilsson is a character readers encounter at the beginning of Chapter 29 in "They Came on Viking Ships." With a description that evokes a sense of ruggedness and authority, Thrand is a formidable Viking warrior with a distinguished presence. Standing at around six feet and two inches, Thrand's muscular frame and broad shoulders hint at years of physical training and battle experience.

They flicker with a blend of intensity and an unwavering focus, reflecting his keen intelligence and strategic mindset. His gaze carries an unspoken authority that commands respect from his fellow warriors.

Clad in a suit of leather armor, adorned with intricate patterns and runes, Thrand's attire reflects his status as a seasoned warrior. His battle-worn armor bears the scars of previous conflicts, displaying the marks of battles won and lost. Hanging from his belt, a variety of weapons are sheathed, including a trusty longsword that has served him faithfully through countless campaigns.

Thrand's presence exudes confidence and leadership. His voice, deep and commanding, carries across the room with ease. When he speaks, his words are carefully chosen and resonate with authority, leaving no doubt that he is a man accustomed to leading men into battle. There is a measured calmness about him, a quality that belies the storm of violence that can be unleashed in the heat of combat.
