Monday 10/9




alg II hp -  We started today by making sure that we know how to simplify correctly a rational/ radical expression.  We also finished the Illustrative activity from Friday using a system.  Last part of class was using the whiteboards to solve and find range of a function.  Hw is p. 136 #17, 18, 34, 60.




alg II - Started off the class with more (again!) practice of applications of quadratics -  finding max height and time it was in the air.  We reviewed the quiz and them took notes on the quad formula.  Hw is p. 127 #5-7.  Try to use the quad formula.


alg I -  We did 2 assignments;  p. 270 #4-6 and a handout on basketball stats.

Friday 10/6




alg II hp -  Today we solved an equation that involved absolute value, took notes on non-linear systems, did #4 and 15 in section 3.5.  Finished class with an Illustrative exercise on writing equations.  No hw but make sure you can simplify a radical especially for imaginary solutions.




alg II -  Besides being Chance's B Day, we also did another "when does it hit the ground?" problem, a kahoot and took out second quadratic quiz.  No hw.





alg I -   Another turn at Graphingstories.com where we graph situations.  No hw but if you are missing recent hw, do it and turn it in ASAP.

Thursday 10/5




alg II hp-   After looking at the hw, we played with  completing the square.  Not neccessary for this unit but will be helpful in conics.  No hw.


alg II -    started with another "how long is it in the air?" problem and then had a kahoot.  Hw is p. 109 #50-53, 65acdf.



alg I -  warm up 8 on graphing;  handout on taking a data set and making a graphical representation.

Wednesday 10/4



alg II hp -  We started by writing an equation using imaginary roots (also had a quad video as well)  In groups, we worked on p. 128 #35-38, 43, 49, 54.  Due tomorrow.



alg II -  We looked at finding the time that an arrow was in the air using its quadratic model.  We finished in groups on p. 109 #39, 40, 55-58, 63in text; finish for hw.


alg I -   We had another warm up on graphing equations and then we worked on a handout on scatterplots (height vs shoe size).  Both due on Friday.

Tuesday 10/3




alg II HP -   Started class with p. 109 #41, 43, 52 on how to work with imaginary numbers    i^2 = -1
  We then took complex solutions and wrote equations that would match them.  Hw is p. 127  #3-6, 20- 21, 29-32



alg II -   We left this world to look at the imaginary universe-whoa!   Notes on 3.2 (imaginary numbers)  Took notes on 3.2  and hw is p. 109 #4-7.  We also looked at p. 101 #65.



alg I - p. 233 #3, 9, 10, 13

Friday 9/29




alg II hp =   3.2 practice and quiz on solving quadratics - scores look good!


alg II -   more 3.1 practice on p. 100 #39-45.  Practice factoring if you need more practice.



alg I -

Monday 10/ 2




alg II hp -  Today was fun!  We were in the library doing 2 Desmos games on quadratics as well as some time on geogebra's 3-d calculator.



alg II -  Thanks to Justin, we had some whiteboard practice on transformations and find solutions.  Finished class with group work on p. 100 #47-53 odds and #56.



alg I -    Today we examined scatterplots and made note of correlation.  We wrote stories and showed what they would look like on a graph.  Finally, hw is p. 258 #6.
