FINALS DAYS!!!!!

Let's finish out strong with two great weeks!!!

May 16th-20th Week in Preview

We survived the CRT!! Now it is time to get ready for our finals. Finals Days are May 27th, 31st, and June 1st. Please make sure you don't miss class those days because there won't be time after to make up the final. Also now is the time to turn in any missing work and make-up any tests and do everything possible to get your grade as high as you can so when we get the CRT scores back it won't ruin your grade.

Here's how this week will run:

Geometry:

Monday/Tuesday May 16th/17th

We will start our tessellation projects which will be due the day of the final (that is May 27th for B Classes and June 1st for A Classes). The project consists of two tessellation pictures. The first will be made from regular polygons and the second will be made from a sliding tessellation piece. One needs to be from construction paper pieces glued together and the other needs to be made from traced pieces colored in. The more creative the better!
HOMEWORK: Nothing will be due next class

Wednesday/Thursday May 18th/19th

We will spend half the class working on a Fractions Review worksheet (all work in these last weeks will help us be better prepared for Algebra II next year) that will be due at the end of class. When finished you may work on your tessellations project.
HOMEWORK: Any missing work

Friday/Monday May 20th/23rd

Our Algebra II prep of today will be a review of the Distributive Property. Again the worksheet will be due at the end of class and when finished you may work on your tessellation pictures.
HOMEWORK: Any missing work

Algebra II:

Monday/Tuesday May 16th/17th

We will be spending the last couple weeks working on common Algebra skills that need to be second nature in preparation for College Prep or Pre-Calculus. They are also good skills for the ACT. This day we will review and perfect our skills with simplifying Algebraic Expressions. All worksheets from here on out will be due at the end of class so we will have no homework.
HOMEWORK: Any missing work

Wednesday/Thursday May 18th/19th

We will spend the class working on Solving Equations. Again the worksheet will be due at the end of class.
HOMEWORK: Any missing work

Friday/Monday May 20th/23rd

Since I was gone on Friday, we spent one more day working through the CRT review but still corrected it and turned it in by the end of class. I will return them next class so you can continue studying for the CRT.
HOMEWORK: None

Wednesday/Thursday May 4th/5th:

A Classes will turn in their review. All classes will move into our short 3-D unit. We will spend the class learning how to recognize different 3-D shapes as well as learning their names and how many faces, edges, and vertices they have. We will then move into finding the surface area of 3-D shapes.
HOMEWORK: Finish 3-D vocab packet and More Nets of Solids Packet

Friday/Monday May 6th/9th

We will review surface area and move into finding the volume of 3-D shapes. All the formulas can be found on your reference sheet so make sure you know how to use the formulas and what they mean.
HOMEWORK: Volume Packet

Algebra II

Tuesday May 3rd:

Another day of working on our big CRT Review Packet.
HOMEWORK: To be on track to completing your 9 objectives, you should have 6 sections done by next class

Wednesday/Thursday May 4th/5th:

Same as before. Be sure you are getting the help that you need and asking questions on any you are confused on.
HOMEWORK: At this point, you should have 8 sections done by next class

Friday/Monday May 6th/9th:

This is our final day to work on the CRT Review packet. Make sure you are checking your answers as you go so you are ready to turn in the entire packet next class. We will not correct it together, we will just turn it in.
HOMEWORK: Finish 9 sections of the CRT Review packet (all 13 for extra credit)

As always, let's make it a great week!!!
