The Final Week Before Holiday Break!

This week we are doing the following things in Algebra:

1. Monday - Test Review
2. Tuesday - Test Corrections for a higher grade, TTM, Binder prep
3. Wednesday - Binder Check, TTM
4. Thursday - TTM

Three grades are possible this week; 3 As or less.

This week in Geometry, we are doing the following: 

1. Monday - Work on Map Project, Padlet, TTM
2. Tuesday - Turn in Map Project, Padlet, TTM
3. Wednesday - Padlet and TTM

Three grades are possible this week; 3 As or less.

This Week in Math Class!

In Algebra, we are preparing for our Chapter 3 Assessment. Here are some notes and homework assignments:







In Geometry, we are reviewing slope of parallel and perpendicular lines. Here are some notes:





Here is an excellent quiz question for Thursday:

Remember the questions were: 1) Draw a sketch. 2) Label your sketch. 3) List some skew segments. 4) List some parallel faces.

Here is another quiz question. What is the relationship between angle 2 and angle 4? What is the relationship between angle 2 and angle 8?

Day One of Algebra Ch 3 Test Review

Day One: Single Step Linear Equations (Adding and Multiplication)



Here are the basics of addition of linear equations. This works for all real numbers c and d. The assigned problems are added review, pg. 148 #26 - 31.



Here are the basics of multiplication of linear equations. This works for all real numbers a, b, c and d. The review problems assigned are added review, pg. 153 #23 - 28.

Formulas in Algebra!

In Geometry This Week and The Next!

We are talking about Chapter 3: Parallel Lines and Transversals. Students will be applying Geogebra.org to assist them in learning the theorems and postulates in the chapter. Your vocabulary words will be listed in class for you to do a padlet on them.

We have already discussed parallel lines associated with theroems:
CAP - correspondong angle postulate      (congruent)
CIA - consecutive interior angle     (supplementary)
AIA - alternate interior angle     (congruent)
AEA - alternate exterior angle     (congruent)
PT -  perpendicular theorem      (congruent right angles)

There is a new project, which is due December 20, called Area Map. Using information from your local hangout or home, students will create a detailed map with a legend and landmarks of their area. Students will incorporate parallel lines and transversals within their project.

This Week and The Next in Algebra Class!

Students will be understanding how to setup and solve word problems involving consecutive odd or evens numbers.

We discussed what even, odd, and consecutive means?

Even numbers are integers that are divisible by 2. For instance, 0 is even because 0 = 2 (0). 100 is even because 100 = 2 (50).

Odd numbers are integers that are not divisible by 2. For instance, 3 is odd because 3 = 1+ 2(1). 17 is odd because 17 = 1 + 2(8).

Consecutive means terms, numbers, event that follow in sequential order. For instance, 2, 4, and 6 are consecutive even numbers. For instance, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 are consecutive numbers.

For instance, two consecutive even numbers add up to 82. What are the numbers?

Next week we will start talking about formulas and their applications.
