Study Guide part 1 (12/7)
Today, after doing a notebook quiz, all of the students got the study guide for our Algebra I exam. They did a scavenger hunt to find what section from the book went with each topic they have to know. We went through examples from Chapter 1, and the students need to keep up with their examples so they can use them to study along with the study guide.
Due Tomorrow: #1-12 on pages 70-71

Grades, grades, grades (12/6)
Today, we did an EOC warm-up and went over the homework first.
After that, everyone got back their Chapter 3 Tests. We spent some time going over the questions people were confused about and then had time to do test corrections.
After doing test corrections, everyone got back their partner quiz from 4-1. We went over anything confusing on that.
Lastly, everyone got a progress report so they could see how their grades are doing.
Due Tomorrow: Test Corrections!

Writing Functions (4-3) [12/5]
Today, we learned the last "new" lesson of the semester!
The warm-up reviews a concept from chapter 1 and also led us into the discussion today. We went over section 4-3 from the book, and there were three parts to the lesson:
1) Writing equations ---- we had to look at the pattern of numbers and write an equation that would go with all of the ordered pairs.
2) Independent and Dependent variables--- we talked about the difference between them and how to figure out which is which.
3) Writing equations in function notation--- for example: y=3x+2. y is a function of x because y depends on x, so you can re-write it as this: f(x)=3x+2.
Due tomorrow: page 253 #3,7,8, 10,11, 12

Relations and Functions (4-2) 12/2
Today, we did a warm-up reviewing how to graph points on a coordinate plane. We went over the worksheet from section 4-1 to make sure everyone understood it.
The lesson today was on section 4-2 from the book. We talked about tables, mappings, and graphs, what domain and range are, and what a function is.
The students had an exit slip to turn in--after working in partners on page 243 #15,17,18,19,20,21
Homework: Finish the classwork if you did not in class!

Yesterday... (12/1)
Hi folks!
Yesterday, I was out sick with a cough and sore throat. :( I'm doing better today, though not 100%, and I'm at school (see next post for 12/2 assignments).
Yesterday, the class needed to turn in their homework from the night before (the graph they brought in and the 4-1 worksheet).
Then, everyone did a 4-1 partner quiz and turned it in.
No Homework
