WEEK OF SEPT. 30-OCT. 4

ALGEBRA 2 HONORS
         We begin the week with a review of Section 3-1 & 3-2 for a quiz Tuesday.  Then we will go to Sections 3-3 and 3-4, Graphing Systems of Inequalities  and Linear Programming. If there is time this week we will cover Systems of Equations with three variables.

ALGEBRA 1 CP2
         This week we begin Chapter 6 on Systems of Equations.  We will solve Systems by graphing, Substitution, and Elimination(next week).  Our weekly quiz will be Friday.

GEOMETRY HONORS
          The week begins by reviewing for a quiz Tuesday on Sections 2-1 through 2-6 , excluding 2-4.  Then we finish Chapter 2 by covering 2-7 & 2-8, introducing you to Segment and Angle Addition.  A Chapter Test is coming next week!

ALGEBRA 1 CP1
         The week begins with a review of Chapter 5 for a Chapter Test Tuesday.  Then we begin Chapter 6 on Systems of Equations.  We will solve these equations by graphing, substitution, and elimination before they have their next quiz (next week).

WEEK OF SEPT.23-27

ALGEBRA 2 HONORS
         We start the week off with a quiz on Sections 2-1 to 2-4.  From there we will go to Chapter 3 on Systems of Equations.  We will solve these equations by graphing, substitution, and elimination.  Then we will work on Systems of Inequalities.

ALGEBRA 1 CP2
         We will finish off solving Absolute Value Inequalities and move to graphing inequalities with two variables.  A brief review of graphing linear equations with two variables will be introduced before we begin this section.  As usual we will have our weekly quiz Friday.

GEOMETRY HONORS
          This week we begin Chapter 2 on Reasoning and Proof.  We will learn about inductive reasoning, conjectures, logic tables, and conditonal statements early on, which will then introduce us to the formal two-step proof.  Your next quiz will be sometime early next week.

ALGEBRA 1 CP1
         The week starts off with a review of compound inequalities and absolute value inequalities so that we can have a quiz Tuesday.  From there we will work on graphing inequalities in two variables with a brief review of graphing linear equations with two variables.  This bring us to the end of Chapter 5 and there will be a Chapter Test early next week.

WEEK OF SEPT. 16-20

ALGEBRA 2 HONORS
         This week we begin Chapter 2 on Relations and Functions.  We will only be covering the first four sections in the chapter because they are part of your Mid-Term Exam.  The rest of the chapter will be covered during the second semester and will be part of your Final Exam.
         We will learn what relations and funtions are, function notation, Standard Form, Slope Intercept, Point-Slope, and writing and graphing linear equations and functions.

ALGEBRA 1 CP2
         The week will be spent covering compound inequalities with an introduction to absolute value inequalities.  We will learn the difference between "and" and " or" problems and how to graph them.  Our weekly quiz will be Friday.

GEOMETRY HONORS
          This week we will finish up Chapter 1, covering angle relationships and then convex/concave polygons.  We will have a Chapter Test early next week (Monday or Tuesday).

ALGEBRA 1 CP1
         The week will be spent solving Compound Inequalities and Absolute Value Inequalities.  We will have our next quiz when we finish these two sections.


          The Math Lab is available to you Tuesdays and Thursdays during your Directed Study.  It is located in the cafeteria and is run by other teachers in our Math Department.  All you need to do is see me for a pass and then you can get extra help.  This week I am not avilable Monday because of a Department meeting, but will be here Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday.

WEEK OF SEPT. 9-13

ALGEBRA 2 HONORS
        This week we will pass out textbooks and begin with Section 1-5, solving Inequalities.  We will also cover Sect. 1-6, Compound and Absolute Value Inequalities and then have an assessment on Thursday or Friday.  From there we will move to Chapter 2 on Linear Reltions and Funtions.

ALGEBRA 1 CP2
         We continue our work with Inequalities, going into multi-step inequalities for most of the week.  We will have our weekly quiz Friday.

ALGEBRA 1 CP1
         We continue our work with Inequalities and will be working on multi-step inequalities through Wednesday.  A quiz is scheduled for Thursday before we begin Section 5-4 on Compound Inequalities.

GEOMETRY HONORS
          The week starts off with a quiz based on the Summer Packet.  Then I will pass out textbooks and we begin with Section 1-1, Points, Lines, and Planes.  We will also cover Sections 1-2 & 1-3 before our next quiz, which will happen either Friday or Monday.
