Linear Inequalities (3/12)

Good Monday morning to ya!

Today, we'll be doing a warm-up that reviews graphing inequalities on a number line. This will lead us into our lesson today (6-5), graphing linear inequalities. (Example: Graph y>2x-3 on a coordinate plane). Students also received a calendar mapping out our Algebra I curriculum through the months of March and April and the first week of May.

We also talked about a few announcements:

• NO late work will be accepted this 9 weeks. You MUST turn assignments in the day they are due!


• The EOC is in 6 weeks (not including spring break), so we are going to be going quickly through chapters 7-10 this nine weeks. (It can be done).

Due tomorrow: page 432 #4,6,8,9,11

Last Day! (of the 3rd nine weeks) (3/8)

Hello!

Today was the last day of the third nine weeks--that meant any missing or incomplete work was due by the end of the day. In class, students worked on Apangea (http://lms.apangea.com). Apangea helps the students review Algebra and get prepared for the EOC, and it can be done on any computer with internet access! (So...use it!).

No Homework for Monday

TEST DAY! (3/7)

Today, we did a warm-up reviewing the three ways to solve systems, went over the review homework, and then took the Chapter 6A Test.

REMEMBER, all make-up or missing work is due by tomorrow!

Practice Makes Perfect (3/6)

Today was a review day! The warm-up was review, we did 4 review examples, and we played a review game!

For tomorrow, STUDY and do page 427 #1-3,8-9,12-14,16-17

Special Systems (3/5)

Good Monday mornin to ya!

Today, we're doing a warm-up reviewing solving systems by elimination. The lesson today involves 4 new vocabulary words and the two special cases for systems of equations. (no solution and infinite solutions).

We covered the 4 vocab words and did 3 examples together. Then, students got in partners to work on the remainder of the special systems worksheet.

A few notes:

1. It's almost the end of the nine weeks! Students will need to turn in any missing, 0, or incomplete work by Thursday if they want the assignment grade to get on gradespeed before report cards.


2. All students should have gotten a progress report to get signed. Be on the look out!


3. The Chapter 6A Test covering sections 1-4 is WEDNESDAY. There will be tutoring Tuesday, so please encourage your student to go if they need help before the test!

Due Tomorrow: The FINISHED 6-4 Worksheet

Apangea and Make-Up Work (3/2)

Today was an usual day because we had the Black History Month Program during advisory and 6B. My 5B and 7B classes still met, but there were many students absent due to the program during 5B.

For the students who were here, they got a laptop to work on Apangea lessons. While they did that, I passed out any graded work I had including their most recent re-test and a progress report. Once students got their progress report, they had the option to work on Apangea or work on any missing work they had.

All missing work is due by Thursday of next week.

More systems, more systems (3/1)

Today, we did another warm-up reviewing solving systems by graphing and by substitution. The lesson was a continuation from yesterday, and the students worked in partners after that to finish the problem solving worksheet.

Due tomorrow: the finished problem solving worksheet (#1-6)
