Review Day #4 (4/27)

YAY Friday! :) Today, the warm-up reviewed mean, median, and mode.  Students turned in their homework from the night before, and we will be going over that on Monday.  We did a lesson today that was a quick overview of 9-9 (Quadratic Formula), 10-2 (Stem-and-Leaf Plots and Frequency Tables), and 10-3 (Box-and-Whisker Plots).  Students took notes on a guided notes sheet, and then for the last 20 minutes of class, students worked in partners on a review sheet for the EOC that included the topics from the lesson.

Due Monday: Review Sheet #5

Review Day 3 (4/26)

Happy Thursday!

Today, the students came in and immediately started reviewing for their quiz.  While they took their quiz, I checked off their two review sheets from yesterday.  We spent some time going over the two review sheets-- getting volunteers to come up to the board to do problems.  Everyone got a new review sheet (review sheet #4) to do for tomorrow.

Due tomorrow: 2A and 3A classes need to all of the review sheet except for the systems questions

4A needs to finish ALL of the review sheet 4

Review Day 2 (4/25)

Instead of doing a warm-up today, the students checked all of their answers from their practice EOC yesterday.  We went over some of the most missed questions, and then the students worked on the next two EOC review sheets.

Due tomorrow: BOTH completed EOC worksheets

Practice EOC (4/24)

Today we spent the class period taking a practice EOC test.  This was a full-length, 65-question test that asked questions from all of the Algebra I standards.  Students need to make sure that they bring their test and answer sheet to class tomorrow.  Most finished the practice test in class, but if they didn't, it needs to be done by tomorrow.

Due tomorrow: completed practice EOC test

Finishing, Reviewing, Graphing (4/23)

Today, we did a factoring warm-up that was multiple choice.  All of our warm-ups will be multiple choice this week in an effort to talk about test taking skills before the EOC!  The EOC is in one week and one day, so we will spend some time this week reviewing each day.  Today, students who needed to finish their Ch. 8 Test finished it, and they also all got a review sheet to work on.  There will be a review sheet for each day.  After doing the review, the students learned more about graphing quadratics on the graphing calculator.

Tomorrow, we will be taking a practice EOC test, so there will not be a new lesson.

Due tomorrow: Finished Review Sheet.  Note: There will be a quiz on types of numbers and properties on Wednesday.

Test Day (4/20)

Instead of doing a warm-up today, we went over the most needed questions from the study guide.  After any last minute questions were asked, the students took the Chapter 8 Test.  A few students did not finish, and they will get the chance to finish it on Monday.

NO homework this weekend!

Review Day! (4/19)

Yesterday was a review day!  We did a warm-up that covered how to factor each type of equation we've dealt with and went over the homework from the night before.  Every student got a study guide with practice questions and had about 20-30 minutes to work in partners on the study guide.

Due Friday: Completed Study Guide

PREPARE for your Chapter 8 Test!
