Week of January 7

Hi All,
I have had a terrible cold, and I was out sick on Monday and Tuesday.  Although I am feeling better, we need to get caught up!!

In my Period 3 class, we are working on translations and rotations in the coordinate plane.  Students seem to really understand translations, and yesterday, we played a tic-tac-toe game with problems to work on these translations.  Today and tomorrow, we will be working on rotations in the coordinate plane.  We will start review of the three different transformations in the coordinate plane next week, and we will have a quiz on Wednesday. 

In Periods 4 & 6, we are finishing up our discussion with Point-Slope form and real-life applications related to it.  While I was absent, students started working on Standard Form of linear equations.  We will be finishing up our discussion, and beginning to review for our test on Chapter 5, which will be Wednesday.


In Period 5, we are working on the three types of symmetry: Rotations, Reflections, and Translations.  We started talking about translations yesterday, and we will be finishing up today!  We will be reviewing for our quiz on Tuesday.
