A Day 9/21/10

Periods 1 Geometry grades 10-12
Objective: Students will solve problems of measuring segments in order to find distance using a highway number line. Following the warm up, Mrs.Dennard taught how to measure segments, how to identigy a midpoint, and how to name an angle. All student work collected by Friday 9/17 was returned to students. Students were assigned practice problems, and worked in small groups to complete the assignment.
Classwork: Text pp.29-30,#1-15.
Homework: Back of the warm up #5 on linear equations.Prepare for quiz on Thursday.

Period 4 Geometry grade 9
Objective:Students will solve problems of measuring segments and angles in order to use a protractor to measure the angle formed by the hands of a clock. Following the warm up, Mrs. Dennard taught the class how to use a protractor to measure angles, the four ways to classify angles, and the Angle Addition Postulste. Insructions were given for classwork as follows:Text pp.30-33;#16-27,47,48,55,65-78.
Homework: Back of the Warm Up #5, and complete classwork. Prepare for quiz on Thursday.

Period 3 Math Studies IB
Objective: Students will solve problems using set notation, and interval notation in order to identify sets. Following the warm up, Mrs.Dennard taught the lesson on set notation. Students learned about the use of bracket, braces and parentheses; finite and infinite sets; n(S) - the amount of elements in a set; the empty set, subset symbols and the complement of a set.
Assignment: Oxford text: pp 115-126,Ex.3.1 1-6.
Tomorrow: More set notation and Venn Diagrams.
Quiz on Thursday - (Chapters 3 and 5 in H&H)
