monday 10/31

alg II-  pretty easy day;  we spent a lot of time on riddles (congrats to the winners) as well as the google doodle game.  We did factor 6 problems as we will focus on graphing and factoring this week.  no hw.



alg I -   we did start 4.01 in the text today, reviewing the definition of slope and how to visually determine steepness.  We also had some brain teasers.  no hw.

friday 10/28

alg II -  we had yet another KAHOOT!  as well as review the hw from Thursday.  We finished up with the quiz (lucky period 2 got to go to the art gallery)


alg I -  we finally finished unit 3 on graphing by taking our final assessment of the unit.  Great job!

thursday 10/27

alg II - another Kahoot day as well as a little practice to show what the quiz will look like.  We practiced some synthetic division p. 176 #11-13, 26, 34



alg I -   we took test questions from those who have looked the review guide, then we reviewed for the test, which is tomorrow.  Still time to look at the review guide and practice!

wednesday 10/26

alg II -   'nother volume problem, of course, but then right into a Kahoot!   We looked at a few problems #6,7 on p. 175, but then got notes on synthetic division and then did #11-13.

quiz friday on - 1 problem on solving a polymonial, 1 on mult polynom. and 1 on writing an equation from solutions


alg I -  we did our first performance of the year!  Hope it went well; if you missed you will see Mr Russell or myself when you return.

tuesday- 10/25

alg II - we reviewed the problems from Monday  #54, 56 as well as did an extension of the problem in 56 by finding what x would be to get a volume of 32.  We also did #47 in section 4.6 which I am sure we will see again.  Last, we did the notes for 4.3-dividing polynomials.  no hw, we'll start the division stuff tomorrow.


alg I -   we assessed the posters we made yesterday and then used the info on transformations to graph on the whiteboards as well as a little D & R review.  we also did our first coordinate plane scramble and it looked really good!

Monday 10/24

alg II -   Today we worked on p. 171 #35, 37, 51, 52, 54, 56.  Due Tuesday.


alg I - Today we made our posters for parent functions.  Perf task on WEd and test on Friday.  See review guide.

review guide for alg I unit 3 test

There are going to be 10 or so problems on our next test.
The biggest ideas are:  graphing from a situation and graphing an equation- 5 problems.
There is also 1 problem on finding the intersection points of 2 graphs.
I would expect 1-2 on the function, domain and range work we have been doing.
It is possible that there may be a Pythagorean problem on there as well.


In the book
p. 207 #1 all
p. 213 #2-4
p.  276 #4,8-10, 12
p. 281 #6-8

Although we did not do these pages, they do explain domain and range on p. 445-447 in the book, however, I would recommend using your own notes and examples.  PLEASE ask questions in or out of class if you are not clear on any of these concepts.

you may want to look up a video on graphing quadratic equations to see how they differ.

Of course, you can also go to www.graphingstories.com and go over some of the ones we have already done.

There won't be any stats on the test, though they will be on the performance task, so plan accordingly.
