A Day - 2/10/11
I was out of school for 4 days last week due to a nasty virus that has been making the rounds here lately. I'm good enough as they say - so here we go....
Periods 1A grade 10-12 and 4A Geometry grade 9
Objective: Students will use slope formula and parallel lines, and also relate the use of slope for perpendicular lines in order to write an equation that models part of a leaded glass window. Mrs. Dennard discussed the slope formula and its use in identifying parallel and perpendicular lines, and did a quick check on how many students had completed the assignment while the substitute was here. There were several students who still had work to do on this assignment, so they were given time to prceed with this. Those students who had completed the 3-6 assignment were instructed to go to the chapter review problems, and the chapter test. All these practice problems rae dyue next class - on 1/13/10.
Thewre will be a brief quiz on 3-5 and 3-6 next class. Students will receive the nit 3 test review which will be due on Friday. The Unit 3 Test is on Wednesday, 1/19/11.
Period 3 Math Studies IB grade 11
Objective:
Students will convert SI units in the 7 types of SI units in order to become adept at using these calculation in word problems. Students were directed to the assignment given last Friday, and Mrs. Dennard took questions on this. Ther was discussion of the number of feet in a mile versus the number of feet in a meter, and what was the measurement in SI that is closest to our mile? In so far as all questions were cleared up, students are expected to complete the assignment for tomorrow. Text Oxford, pp. 87-82.
There will a brief quiz on this materiel on Wednesday.

Following the warm up, Mrs. Dennard went over the last lesson done before the break to refresh all students memories. Practice problems were assigned, and then students took a brief quiz on this lesson.(3-5)Both 3-5 and 3-6 are reviews of Algebra concepts. When the quiz was finished, Mrs. Dennard directed students to pp.158-164 and assigned the Check for Understanding problems as class work, and #1-24 on pp 161-162 for homework.
Unit 3 TEST will be next Thursday!(next week)
Period 3 Math Studies IB grade 11
Objective: Students will use significant figures; p[ercentage errors; and scientific notation in order to solve real-world problems. Following the warm up, Mrs. Dennard reviewed several topics brought in by this class regarding their topics for the internal assessment (IA) statistics research paper. I was dissapointed to learn that students had done little, if any, reading about the topic they planned to do a project on! I have now required that students bring in at least 3 sources for the topics they plan to collect data about on Friday, January 7.
Students were assigned practice problems in the Oxford text,pp. 65-72, Secvtions 2.2 and 2.3. Please complete these exercises for homework if not already completed in class. And- find some articles to read on your topic!
