Hi All!
In math class today, we reviewed for our test tomorrow. We finished both of our review sheets, and walked through the concepts. Students were able to ask questions for the test tomorrow. I will be holding an after school review session if students would like to stay. There is no homework tonight, besides to look at the review sheets and go over/redo any problems necessary to prepare for tomorrow.
In algebra 1 class today, we finished our discussion on scatterplots and best fit lines. We then began a discussion on point-slope form of a line. We went over examples together as a class, and then students practiced using the formula. Most students finished, but if not, the only homework students have is to finish the practice worksheet from class today.

Hi all,
In math class today, you took a quiz on slope. We then did an activity to discuss slope in proportional and not proportional relationships. Since we finished the activity in class, we do not have homework tonight.
In algebra 1 class, we continued to practice writing equations given two points. For homework, complete Page 288 #21-35. I forgot my answer keys at work, so please look in the back of the book for the odd answers, and we can discuss in class tomorrow!

Today, in math class, we worked on finding slope on a graph. We figured out that no matter what two points we use on a line, we will always get the same slope! We discussed similar triangles being found using the ratio of "rise over run" for all of the different points, and then applied it to a real life situation of building a skateboarding ramp. For homework, you must finish the finding slope on a graph worksheet if you did not finish it in class.
Today, in algebra class, we continued to work on our graphing brochures that are due tomorrow. Some students are still have difficulty with the horizontal and vertical lines sections. You must give me an example, and then explain what the slope is for the example, create a table of values, and then graph and show either the horizontal line or the vertical line. Then, we worked on interpreting slope and y-intercept when given a word problem, an equation, a table, or a graph. Your homework is to finish that small packet. Reminder: your Chapter 4 test got moved to Monday. We will be working in class tomorrow on one final piece of information necessary for the test, and then starting review!

Hi All!
I have been so busy, I have not even updated this week!
Here is a weekly update for Math class this week!
On Monday, we wrote equations from word problems that had variables on both sides. For homework, you completed a worksheet that had 4 word problems on it. I also handed you a review packet for our test that is tomorrow, Friday, November 7th.
On Tuesday, we did not have school! I hope you all enjoyed the day off.
On Wednesday, I collected your word problems that you did for homework. We worked on a fun review activity, where you drew and colored a face on a blank template based on the answers to your problems! For homework, you needed to finish the face activity and also continue to work on your review sheet for the test that is Friday.
Today, Thursday, I collected the face drawing that you did. We will be having a contest to see which face was the most creative and best drawn! You may be able to win a free homework pass! :) During class, we played a review game to help prepare you for the test. Each math class received +3 bonus points on their tests! Nice work! For homework, you must finish the review sheet that was handed out on Monday during class.
Tomorrow, Friday, you will be taking a test on writing and solving equations. I will collect the review sheet that you have been working on at home for homework since Monday. There will be no homework over the weekend! Enjoy!
Here is a weekly update for Algebra 1 class this week:
On Monday, we continued our discussion on similar figures. We worked on some more challenging examples and applications of similar figures. For homework, you began the front side of a graphing worksheet, and you had to finish the similar figures packet that we were working on in class. Last Thursday, I gave you an extra credit cross-word puzzle activity that would give you up to 10 extra points on your low quiz/test scores. That cross-word puzzle was due on Wednesday.
On Tuesday, we did not have school! I hope you all enjoyed the day off.
On Wednesday, we began Chapter 4. We worked on writing equations in function form, and then using a table of values to graph the equation. I collected the extra credit, and I passed back your tests from last week. In order to help improve some of the grades, I am allowing you to fix your open response on the test if you did not receive a 4/4. The re-do of the open response is due Friday.
On Thursday, we continued our work on function form, tables, graphs, and also worked on writing equations of horizontal and vertical lines. We did a grouping activity in class that allowed you to be paired with different students! For homework, you must complete page 215 #30-35 and 44-46. On #30-35, you must also choose 2 of the equations to graph. On 44-46, you must graph all of the equations!

Resources Section Updated!
Hi! I know some of you were not in class today because of the field trip to the Voke. I posted videos under the resources sections for you to get a little bit of help on your homework/work from today. I am reminding students that they must see me if they missed my class today, but at least you will be able to look at some of what we did today in class. The video for Pre-Algebra would be "Clearing out the Fractions".
10/21/14
Hi All!
In math class today, we finished our discussion on solving equations involving decimals. We began discussing how to solve equations with fractions. We learned that to "clear out" the fractions, you must multiply the whole equation by the common denominator. Please check the resource section of the blog for a video that shows how to "clear out" the fractions. For homework, you must complete Page 305 #1, 2, 5, 6, 14, 15, 16. On the last blog post, I posted a picture of the page in the book, just in case you forgot your book at school! (I know...no need to thank me!!)
In Algebra class today, we finished our station work from yesterday on solving equations involving decimals. We also worked in pairs on some challenging word problems. We will be going over the word problems very quickly tomorrow, and the top two pairs in each class will get some bonus points on their Chapter 3 test! For homework, you must finish the station work from class today if you did not finish.
