WEEK OF DEC. 19-23

ALGEBRA 2 HOchcNORS

The week starts off with a review of Section 5-9, Complex Numbers, for a quiz Tuesday. From there we will begin our work in Chapter 6, Quadratic Functions and Inequalities. In this chapter we will solve Quadratic Functions and Equations by graphing, factoring, completing the square, and the Quadratic Formula. We will continue this after our XMAS break.

ALGEBRA 1A CP2

This week will be spent reviewing all of the concepts we have covered so far this year. We will do review worksheets Monday through Wednesday with a Review Quiz Thursday, since there is no school Friday.

ALGEBRA 1 CP1

Last week we began a chapter on solving Inequalities by doing one-step problems. This week will be spent on solving multi-step Inequalities, which are done the same way as if we were solving equations. A quiz is planned for Thursday.

GEOMETRY HONORS

The week starts off with a review of Chapter 5 on Inequalities in Polygons and Triangles for a Chapter Test on Tuiesday. Then we begin Chapter 6 on Proportions and Similarity in Polygons and Triangles. We will continue this after the XMAS break.

I hope that all of you have a safe and Happy Holiday season. When we return from break, we will have only three weeks before the end of the second term and we be half way through the school year, believe it or not.

WEEK OF DEC. 12-16

ALGEBRA 2 HONORS
We start the week off by continuing Section 5-8 on Radical Equations and Inequalities. We will have a quiz Wednesday on Sections 5-7 & 5-8 and the go onto Section 5-9, Complex Numbers. There will not be a Chapter Test on Chapter 5 because of its length and the amount of material covered in it.

ALGEBRA 1A CP2
The week will spent on Probability and Odds, including compound events. There is a difference between probability and odds and students seem to always have trouble with odds, so we will be spending the entire week on this concept with our usual quiz on Friday.

ALGEBRA 1A CP1
We start the week off by reviewing Chapter 5 for a Chapter 5 Test Wednesday. Then we will begin Chapter 6 on solving Inequalities and will continue this up to the vacation and after it.

GEOMETRY HONORS
We start the week off by continuing Section 5-1 on Bisectors, Medians, and Altitudes. I also plan on covering Sections 5-2, 5-4, and 5-5 this week with a test next week. The concepts we will learn this week include Inequalities in Tirangles and the Triangle Inequality Theorem.

WEEK OF DEC. 5-9

ALGEBRA 2 HONORS

We begin the week with a quiz on Radicals. From there we will cover Section 5-7 which deals with Rational Exponents, both positive and negative. I also intend to begin Section 5-8 on Radical Equations and Inequalities.

ALGEBRA 1A CP2

This week we continue our work with Percents by introducing real-life applications such as sales tax and discount. These are concepts you will use for the rest of your life. If there is time this week I am going to introduce the idea of Probability and Odds. We will have our usual quiz Friday.

ALGEBRA 1 CP1

We continue our work this week with Point-Slope and Slope-Intercept by applying them to the concept of parallel and perpendicular lines. Parallel lines have the same slope and perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other. Then we have one more section to cover and we will have finished Chapter 5. A Chapter Test is coming up next week.

GEOMETRY HONORS

We wrap up Chapter 4 and have a Test on it Wednesday. Then we go to Chapter 5, Relationships in Triangles. Such ideas as bisectors, medians, and altitudes will be covered in the first section. We need to spend at least two days on this concept because of all the new termino
