Parents

I have posted a schedule of conference times on my website for the signs ups I have received so far. It is attachment "sc0092f97.jpg"

homework

Students were given a project that will be due next Fri.  They will be given some time in class today and tomorrow (Friday).  They will then have time to complete on the weekend and during next week.  I have the document on my web page titled "Create your own Figure".  This is a lesson in pattern and algebraic equations.

Vocab.  Quiz tomorrow.

PARENTS:  I will post the parent conference times that I have so far this weekend

Homework

Vocabulary:  Finish Unit 5 by Friday and study for test.

Math: Algebra quiz on Friday.

Math: Also,  finish finding patterns and algebraic equations for the "u" pattern.

Then... Choose one of the following letters:  W, M, E,  F

On graph paper create a zero through 4 year old.  (Make sure it grows the same each year)

Make a T-chart.  Look for a pattern that would help you find any age.  Shade in your constant to help you.  Write your algebraic equation.  If you want change the constant and see if you can find another pattern and algebraic equation.

homework and Parent Conferences.

Math:  Please complete the dot pattern page that I handed out in class.  Those who were absent you will have to call a friend to get it.  

Vocab.:  Please finish page 48 

Parents:  The conference schedule form is now on my web page.  Refer to my blog entry on 10-26

My blog is only showing one post at a time so make sure to click older posts. There is another post for today as well!

homework

Vocabulary: Review unit 1-4 to due tomorrow. You have your weekly quiz.

Math: We spent are second day looking at how visual patterns can lead to algebraic equation that have two variables. Students are learning how to understand and identify a constant and a variable. They will be starting to realize that if they define the constant differently that will change the algebraic equation and generalization.

Students will be given a project on this shortly after they have had a few more experiences.

Please ask you students to try and explain what they are doing in the class. This will help them to develop these concepts over time.

Homework

Math:  No homework.  We just started our algebra unit on patterns today.  Ask students to try and explain what we did in class today and share their notes.

Vocab: We have our unit 1-4 review test Friday.  Please finish the review unit.  Also, go back and review spelling of the words and how to use them as a noun, adjective, or verb for Friday's test.

homework

Vocabulary:  Make sure you have finished page 36-39.  We will go over it tomorrow in class.
