Assignments for Sept 26-30

Geometry: 
This week we will work on review for sections 1.1-1.2.  The students will take a quiz on these sections either Tues or Wed.  We will then start section 1.3 which is over Midpoint and Distance.  Depending on time, we will then cover section 1.4 which is over angles.  The students will take a quiz over these two sections as well.  We might not have time this week to finish these sections and if we don't we will then review when we come back from fall break.

Algebra:
This week we will work on review for sections 2.1-2.4.  Students will take a quiz over these sections.  We will then start Matrix Addition and Scalar Multiplication.  If time allows, we will then start 2.5 which is over the Distributive Property.  Freshmen take the Explore test on Thursday morning as well.

Assignments for Sept 19-23

I apologize for the late notice on the assignments for this week.  I was out two days this week for illness and it has taken me a while to get everything back in order for this week.

Geometry: We worked on sections 1.1 and 1.2 in the book.  These sections involve Points, Lines and Planes as well as segment congruence.  We had Club Day on Wednesday, Plan testing on Thursday morning and Career Fair on Friday.  This has been a week completely out of routine.

Algebra:  We worked on Sections 2.1-2.4.  These sections involve Properties of Real Numbers.  Students took a quiz on Monday over sections 1.6-1.7.  These will be in Infinite Campus soon. 

Once again, I do apologize for the late notice.

Assignments for Sept 12-16

Geometry Assignments for the week:

We will be working on Probability pp. 892-893.

We will be working on the Plan forms 31A and 29B. These are practice Plan tests.  All sophomores take the Plan test next Thursday Sept 22.

After review, we will start exercises over points, lines, and planes. This will start Cha 1 in the Geometry book.

Algebra Assignments for the week:

Mrs. Boaz will take one class period this week, and she will discuss with all the Algebra 1 students their KEES money, Dual-Credit Classes, and how to figure their GPA.

We will finish section 1.5 in the book which is over problem solving.  We will cover Tables and Functions, and Functions as graphs. These are sections 1.6 and 1.7 in the book.  If all exercises are covered, we will then take a quiz over sections 1.6 and 1.7.

Assignments for Sept 6-9

Geometry News:

We continue to work on Skills Review.  All Sophomores will take the PLAN test on Sept 22.

We will be working on Linear Inequalities p. 881 as well as Percents p.885; Converting Measurements p.886; Mean, Median, and Mode p. 887; Probability pp. 892-893; and Problem Solving p. 895.

Students will have quizzes on Linear Inequalities, Converting Measurements, and Probability.

This is tentative and could change throughout the week.


Algebra News:

We will continue working on  Algebraic Expressions, Equations and Inequalities, and Order of Operations.
These are sections 1.2-1.4 in the textbook.

Students will have a quiz over Expressions and Equations/Inequalities.

Students will continue to review the process of Order of Operations.

We will also continue to look at reviewing Basic Skills.

GPA, KEES money, Transcript, Falcon Academy

It has been a great week.

Mrs. Boaz spent two days in my Geometry classes explaining the importance of Falcon Academy as well as many other things.  All Geometry students received information on KEES money and were told how to calculate that.  All Geometry students received a copy of their transcript, a copy of their PLAN scores and information on Falcon Academy Dual-Credit Courses.  She also explained how their ACT score will affect so many aspects of their future.

I thank Mrs. Boaz so much for taking the time to explain all of this information to my Sophomore and Junior students.
