9/22 Tuesday: Viva la Revolucion.

File # 11 contains an updated table of contents that you need; get it!
We spent a large part of the time going over your grades and seeing where students are going wrong in terms of homework and organizing their binders. We went over a handout on how to fix your binder that is stored in file # 11. Work on this handout and get your binder tight!
Homework tonight:
problems 1-69, 1-70, 1-72.
Prelude in file number (yes you guessed it) 11!

9/18-Friday

Classwork: problems 1-43, 1-44, 1-45,
Quick lecture on Domain and range for problem 1-46,

HW: 1-47, 1-48, 1-52, 1-50 (look up distance formula for this last one)

9-16 still keeping the "fun" in fuctions. (but more fun!)

Prelude:
Correct your quiz from yesterday. Write down what you did wrong. Then do problem 1-36.
Ok, so we finished off the classwork problems from yesterday. Problems 1-27, 1-28, and 1-29. This was important since y'all don't necessarily have graphing calculators at home.

9/15 - We put the "fun" in functions!

Started off with a Concept Skill Mastery Quiz.
If you didn't get 100%, I gave you a practice sheet. Remember if you don't pass this then you may not pass the class.
Then we worked on problems in the book:
Chapter 1, page 16, problems 1-27, 1-28, 1-29,
HW is: 1-16, 1-22 (a, b, c, d), 1-26, 1-41 (a only), and 1-23 is EXTRA CREDIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TOTALLY SWEET.

8th Day: 9/11 Functions Machines

Today:

• Prelude: graphing linear equations on one side, questions on how to log into my blog on the other side. You need a computer and internet to do this prelude. (in file #9)
  
• Textbooks were passed out. Get one if you were absent.
• In your brand spankin' new textbooks, and starting on page 5, problems: 1-2, 1-4, 1-7, 1-8 and 1-9.
  

9/9 7th Day

• Today each student received a progress report showing their grades. We organized our binders to the table of contents. Grade printout and reflection goes in your binder for 4 points.
• Also we worked on the handout "How to Solve an Equation" this is in file number 11. Finish the last 2 problems for homework.
  
• Last handout was on working on linear equations. Do problems 7-76, 7-78, 7-89, 7-90, 7-77 is extra credit.
• Both handouts are in file number 8.
  

And remember, math makes you smarter.

6th Day. 9/4. Graphing Linear Equations.

Today...

1. We did a concept mastery quiz either on solving equations if you have not passed that one, or linear equations. Remember, you have to pass with 100% mastery to move on to the next one.
   
2. We worked on graphing linear equations. Handout on "Finding the equation of a line knowing 2 points" is in file number 6. All problems on the front page must be done for full credit. Last problem is extra credit.
3. For homework we had a 2 page handout titled "Study Guide and Intervention". All problems on page 20 and 28. Odd problems on page 22 and 27.
   

Enjoy!

5th Day: 9/2: quiz review.

Prelude: in file # 4. done in class.
Today we are reviewing our quiz from yesterday. You are examining what you did wrong, and what you did right. You are correcting your answers so you do not make the same mistakes again! and you won't next time you take this quiz which is on Friday! sweet!
HW today: White handout, 2-sided, "Solving 2 step equations" and "Mixed Practice". Get it in file #5.
Cheers.

4th day: 9/1: Mo' Solving Equations

Title does not mean that Mo was solving equations, it just means that we are doing MORE of solving equations. We plan to MASTER this. That means you can do it without mistakes.
Prelude for today is in file #3.
We took a quiz at the end of class. You need to see me to take this. As all concept mastery quizzes you have to get ALL problems right to move on to the next quiz. You cannot move on to the next quiz until you get ALL problems right (did I just repeat myself? It must have been important).
