Could someone suggest links for learning geometry? A friend in public
school is having trouble grasping the methods her teacher is using and
would like another perspective.

Also, does anyone know how to make goat cheese? Would appreciate links
for recipes and equipment. Any suggestions on what else to do with large
quantities of goats milk would also be appreciated :-)

I highly recommend books from the "Maneuvers with Mathematics" series. These
were developed for middle schoolers by the Maneuvers with Mathematics project
at the University of Illinois at Chicago, having found that the traditional
methods didn't work for so many kids. They are carefully designed so that one
skill truly builds on the next, and provides real-world contexts. The first
geometry one (there are 2 or 3) is called "Maneuvers with Angles" by David
Page et. al. Published by Dale Seymour Publications, Palo Alto, CA

Can't recommend much for goat cheese. I've heard that the most important
requirement is a goat.
