Lesson Plans for Jan 30- Feb 3

Geometry:  This week we will be working on the Pythagorean Theorem that deal with Special Right Triangles. We will also be working on The Sine, Cosine and Tangent Functions.  This is all in Cha 7, and when we finish these sections, we will take a quiz.

Algebra:  This week we will be working on solving equations using the Standard Form of the line.  We will quiz over this concept and then move on to Cha 6.

Lesson Plans for Jan 23-27

Geometry:  Students will be working on the Pythagorean Theorem.  We will spend a couple of days working on this concept and then students will take  a quiz over this material.  This is 7.1-7.2 in the Geometry textbook.  Students will then start 7.4 which involves special Right Triangles.  The quiz for this material will be the following week.

Algebra:  Students will learn how to find an equation using slope along with a set of coordinate points.  This is sections 5.1-5.3.  Students will quiz over this material as well.

January 2012

We are off to a great start.  Geometry students have been busy with inequalities, ratios, proportions, and similar triangles.  Algebra students have been working on several activities that involve slope.

We just came off a 5 day weekend which included 2 snow days and 1 holiday, but all grades are updated as well as lesson plans.

Beta Club had its January Club Meeting yesterday and all eligible freshmen were invited to attend.  Students have to have a 3.0 GPA in order to be able to join Beta Club.  We treated the 9th graders to our annual sundae party.  National Beta Club Dues are $20 and this is due to me by Friday February 3.

Lesson Plans for next week, January 23-27, will be posted on Friday. 

Have a great weekend! :)

Assignments for Nov 28-Dec 2

Geometry: We will be working on sections 4.3-4.6.  These sections involve congruence of triangles.  Triangles can be proven congruent by SSS, SAS, AAS, ASA, and HL.  We will quiz over these sections and then we will start transformations. This is section 4.7.

Algebra: We will start transformations on Monday, and then we will be working on graphing equations the rest of the week. This involves sections 4.2-4.3.  If we have time, we will start slope and rate of change on Friday.

Assignments for November 14-18

Geometry:  We will work on Triangles and congruence of Triangles.  This will cover sections 4.1-4.4.  We will quiz over the first two sections and then over the next two sections.

Algebra: We will work on Percents which is section 3.7 and then we will work on 3.8 which is solving equations for different variables.  Some students will retake section 3.4 quiz which was over solving equations with variables on both sides of the equal sign.

Club Day is Thursday Nov 17.

Assignments for Nov 7-11

Geometry: We will work on 3.4 and 3.5 equations of lines.  We will quiz over these two sections, and we will then start 4.1 which involves triangle sum properties. 

Algebra: We will work on 3.5 and 3.6.  These involve ratios and proportions as well as cross products.  We will quiz over these two sections and then move onto 3.7 if we have time.

Tuesday is Election Day so we are not in school that day and Friday is the Veterans Program.  The program starts at 9:00 and this will last all of 2nd period.

Assignments for Nov 1-4

Geometry: We will be working on Angle Relationships from section 3.2.  We will have a quiz over sections 3.1 and 3.2.  We will then continue with slope which is section 3.4 and finish with equations of lines which is section 3.5.  We will also quiz over these two sections.

Algebra: We will be working on section 3.4 which involves variables on both sides of the equal sign.  We will then go on to rates and proportions which will be sections 3.5 and 3.6.  We will quiz over these two sections.
