WEEK OF MARCH 25 to MARCH 29

ALGEBRA 1 CP1
        Last week we worked on adding, subtracting, and multplying monomials and polynomials.  We will review Monday for a Quiz on Tuesday on these concepts which are in Sections 8-1 & 8-2.
         Then I will show you how to multiply a binomials and trinomials together.  Since all of you know the Distributive Property, this should not be as difficult as it sounds.

ALGEBRA 1 CP2
         The week begins with the class going over the concept of Scientific Notation, something they have had in either their math or science class before.  From there we will work on simplifying square roots with the use of a calculator.  Then we will apply this concept to the Pythagorean Theorem and spend the rest of the week in this area.  I am not planning a quiz this week because of the short week.  I will add this material to next week's quiz.

GEOMETRY HONORS
          Last week we started Chapter 10 on Circles.  This week will spent discussing angles, arcs, and chords of circles, with a quiz tentatively scheduled for Thursday.  In these sections you will be introduced to major and minor arcs, and semicircles.  The formula for Arc Length will also be discussed.

ALGEBRA 2 HONORS
          We have a quiz Monday on Sections 8-1 to 8-3.  We did a review last Friday to prepare for this.  The rest of the week will spent introducing you to the Ellipse and the Hyperbola, two other types of Conic Sections.  When these two sections are completed, we will have our next quiz, more than likely on the last week of the term.
