review time.

Math 1B

today we started reviewing for the UNIT 5 test that you are taking on Friday. make sure you are studying for this and working out these problems over and over from the review packet! we will continue reviewing tomorrow.

homework: do standard MM1A3 a (solving quadratics by factorization and square roots) and get a parent signature on the review!!

Math 1A

today we started reviewing for the Mid-Unit 2 Test that you will be taking on Friday.

homework: do #1-6 from standard MM1A2 c (performing operations with polynomials) and get a parent signature!

better finish usatestprep.

today we solved rational equations by using cross multiplication. tomorrow we will continue solving rational equations. on wednesday, we will start reviewing UNIT 5. TEST ON FRIDAY!

no homework UNLESS you did not finish the benchmark on usatestprep.com over the weekend...which is quite a few of you!

keep doing usatestprep.com

all week we have not had homework...BECAUSE you are supposed to be working on USAtestprep.com.

the benchmark test (code: RUJUFUZOTE) has to be completed by Sunday at midnight! if you have it finished by tomorrow at midnight, you will get 15 points added to your benchmark test.

big quiz tomorrow.

Math 1B

today we factored more. which means we have been factoring A LOT. which means tomorrow you will finally have a "show me what you know..." in order to show me what you know!!! i hope all of this practicing has made you experts!!!

homework: finish Factoring Trinomials WS

Math 1A

today we added and subtracted polynomials. we will continue practicing this tomorrow!

homework: choose any 3 problems from the back of the polynomial WS

CONGRATS to 3rd period for winning this week's class competition...by 2 points! ooohhh, close one this week!

can't get enough of factoring!

Math 1B

today we practiced factoring trinomials and also practiced solving them.

homework: multiple choice factoring trinomials #7-12 (omit #8)

***if you click on the website to the right on factoring, you can get more practice. if you print it out or write down the answers, i will give you extra credit!!!***

Math 1A

today we started standard MM1A2 c which involves adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing polynomials.

homework: #1-9 on 2.1 worksheet. make sure to write each polynomial in standard form, degree, and leading coefficient.

bingo.

Math 1B

today we played bingo to practice factoring trinomials. factoring takes practice, practice, practice!!!

Math 1A

today we played bingo to practice simplifying square roots. you all did a great job!

factor by grouping.

Math 1B

today we factored by grouping. you will have a "show me what you know..." tomorrow over factoring by GCF and factoring by grouping.

homework: Factoring by Grouping WS #1-24 (practice makes perfect!!)

Math 1A

today we practiced multiplying square roots (multiply inside stuff with inside stuff, and multiply outside stuff with outside stuff!).

homework: 4 board problems

congrats to 3rd period for winning this week's class competition!!! you'll be getting a treat tomorrow!

like those parentheses.

Math 1B

factoring is all about getting our polynomials into parentheses. we continued practicing this today. we went a step further by solving our polynomials after we factored them.

homework: Vertical Motion WS #2-4 (remember...set the equations = 0 and solve!)

Math 1A

today we practiced adding and subtracting radicals.

homework: Radical WS (you pick any six problems that you want to do!)

GCF.

Math 1B

today we practiced factoring out the GCF of polynomials. we will be factoring all week.

homework: Zero Product Property #10-18 (front) and #1-5 (back)

Math 1A

today we continued practicing simplifying radicals. no homework tonight :)

f(x) = g(x).

Math 1B

today we practiced solving equations of f(x) and g(x). you will have your first "show me what you know..." for UNIT 5 tomorrow. it will be over transformations, odd/even functions, and solving function equations. 1st period will not have their quiz until monday since they won the class competition for the 9 weeks! they will have a party during class tomorrow!! congrats!

homework: MM1A1 i Multiple Choice WS #1-5

Math 1A

today you finished doing test corrections and worked on mastering the standards you did not master on the test. tomorrow we will begin UNIT 2!

odd or even?

***i will give candy to the first 2 students who comment on this blog or e-mail me!***

Math 1B

today we took notes on odd and even functions. look back at your notes for help on your homework!

homework: Even and Odd Functions WS.

Math 1A

today you got your tests back and did your first "try, try, try again" (test corrections). if you did not finish it in class, you need to finish it for homework.

the start of something new.

Math 1B

today we started Unit 5! you got a new table of contents and a new standard checklist. we started out by reviewing functions from Unit 1 (the 6 basic functions, transformations, and characteristics of functions).

homework: Characteristics of Graphs WS (on the back of Review Transformations WS)

Math 1A

today you took the Unit 1 Test! tomorrow you will be getting those back and making test corrections.
