Sorry for this coming late but I am still a little bit in vacation mode.


alg II hp -  did some whiteboard work on circles and ellipses.  They look fairly mastered in general so we may just concentrate on the tangent work until the unit test.  We took notes on hyperbolas but I don;t think we had time to practice them.  Will do so on Tuesday and thurs.  Perf task on Wed. now.  I will try to get the study guide on as soon as possible.


alg II -  Took our sem. 1 unit review quiz.  Scores look good and if you missed you will take on Tuesday.

Surprise on Tuesday for alg I.
