Friday 1/20

alg II -  Today was  a very gray day and then there was the rain.  Thanks to those who came.  We actually started a new unit within this unit on geometric sequences and got notes on them from 8.3.  We'll do more of them on Monday.  We played a Kahoot and then finished with our quiz.



alg I =  We did two things that were turned in with the work packet.  We did our first warm up and there were 8 problems around the room on our current unit.  Notes on recursive equations happened in between these two things.



Goodbye,  Obamas, we'll miss you!

thursday 1/19/17

I was at a conference today and left plans for the sub to follow.

alg II -   Don't forget about the quiz on Friday.  it is only 3 problems and you have done each one of these problems at least twice.  Most is in 6.1 (solving an exponential and finding the amount in the future of a growth function).  However, there is also some stuff in 6.4, where you transform an exponential function.  We have done it in warm ups and whiteboards (not to mention transforming functions in 4 other units) but today you were to work in 6.4 on # 7-10, 15, 17-21, 24, 54.
See you Friday!


alg I -   Mr Russell was in charge today on his own.  Hopefully you listened to what he said and know if anything is due on Friday.

Wednesday 1/18/17

alg II -  If you were here yesterday, we started a handout on poplation.  We finished today and received our notes on 6.2 and looked at how animal populations approach endangerment.




alg I -  Today we learned about arithmetic sequences and did #1-8 in the Holt book p. 237.  We also reviewed #11 from yesterday's work.

Tuesday 1/17/17

alg II -  Today we looked at transformations and a money growth account.
After, we worked in groups exploring the populations of India and China and seeing when they will be the same.  We will work more on this handout tomorrow.



alg I -   Today was our first circle and then we worked in pairs on p. 471 #6-9

Thursday 1/12/17

alg II -  We had a little more practice with transformations of exponential functions and then we went straight into our practice from yesterday's notes (6.1).  p.  300  #2,3,9,11,13,20-22, 27, 46.


alg I -  Period 4 already did p. 447 #2,4,9 on Wednesday but the other classes worked on it today.  All classes worked on p. 461 #2,4,6,10 today.  Computers tomorrow!

Wednesday 1/11/17

alg II -  Very nice class today where we did whiteboard review on the rules on exponents and graphing an exponential function.  It was a short class so we only had time to take notes on 6.1 after that.  No hw, we will do the work in class tomorrow.



alg I -    ALthough we took notes on it in semester 1, we did take notes again on domain and range, vertical line test and piecewise functions.  We started our practice on it in class; p. 447  #2, 4, 9

tuesday 1/10/17

Welcome back and let's have a great second semester!


alg II -   We reviewed sem 1 and the syllabus.  Then  we took our pre test on our new unit (logs and exponentials).  If time permitted we examined a test question on population,.



alg I -   This class reviewed the syllabus.  Then we talked about functions, did a few whiteboard function problems, then did a perseverance activity to close the class.
