Wednesday, Mar 11, 2020
More practice on elimination method without manipulation . . . students continued practice on the back of HW worksheet.
Tuesday, Mar 10, 2020
Today we introduced the elimination method for solving equations. Students worked on simple elimination methods with their table, including some where you had to multiply one of the equations by -1 to get opposite coefficients. Then we continued practice with Khan Academy.

Tuesday, Mar 3, 2020
More practice with the substitution method of systems of equations. We also added examples of rearranging for substitution into our notebooks.
Monday, Mar 2, 2020
After the quiz on the graphing method, students learned how to solve systems using the substitution method. We practice with systems today where you did not need to rearrange first.
Friday, Feb 28, 2020
Students completed practice problems on p 187 #5-11 on checking solutions to systems as well as graphing to find solutions in preparation for the quiz on Monday.
Thursday, Feb 27, 2020

Wednesday, Feb 26, 2020
No class today due to Ash Wednesday Mass
Tuesday, Feb 25, 2020
We began our new unit today on solving systems of equations. Students learned today that a system solution is where the linear equations would cross on a graph. Today we practiced the first method on the graphing method. After copying some examples into our notebooks, we practiced further on NearPod.
Wednesday, Feb 19-Friday, Feb 21, 2020
Study Guide completion for our U5 Test on Functions . . . will cover the following topics:
- writing relations as ordered pairs
- identifying functions from points, tables, graphs, maps, equations
- input output tables
- identifying domain and range of discrete and continuous functions
- evaluating functions f(x) from equations and graphs
- writing equations y = mx+b from tables, graphs
- matching situations, tables, graphs, equations
- graphing functions (y = mx+b)
8Math U6 Functions SG Answer Key 2020.pdfU6 Study Guide Answer Key
Friday, Feb 14, 2020
Today we discussed function notation and how to evaluate a function given specific inputs and outputs. We realized that f(x) is the same as saying output or y. Students practiced evaluating functions from equations but also from graphs.
Wednesday, Feb 12-Thurs, Feb 13, 2020
Today we began looking at our y = mx+b from the last unit and applied it to what we have learned in this unit. Students used tables to identify linear relationships and then write equations in slope intercept form for them.
Tuesday, Feb 11, 2020
After the quiz on domain and range of functions, we looked at how we can use the structure of a function to compare them, primarily with slope and intercept.
Monday, Feb 10, 2020
More practice with finding domain and range of functions in class . . . students completed a check in on p 377 #1-10 and then p 378 #20-25 on domain and range to prepare for the quiz tomorrow.
Thursday, Feb 6, 2020
More practice with identifying the domain and range of continuous and discrete functions...After correcting HW, we practiced further on NearPod.
Wednesday, Feb 5, 2020
After learning about the vertical line test to check for functions, we learned how to identify discrete vs. continuous functions and how to write domain and range for both.
Tuesday, Feb 4, 2020
After reviewing HW, we discussed what to identify and write "domain" and "range" for functions using set notation { and }. Students then worked on p 369 in the book before playing a game of Kahoot!
Monday, Feb 3, 2020
Students shared their notes on the identifying functions from equations, tables, coordinate points, and maps. We discussed what a relation is and what a function is, and then practiced further on NearPod. Students then continued creating tables for functions on p 359 #4-5 in the book.
Friday, Jan 31, 2020
**To be completed during Grad Pictures**
- p 356 Getting Ready
- Copy definitions for "relation," "set," and "ordered pairs" from p 357 into notebook
- Do p 358 Try These A

U4 Test on Linear Equations
Monday, Jan 27-Wednesday, Jan 29, 2020
Study Guide completion for U4 Test on Linear Equations . . . concepts on the test are covered below:
- calculating slope from a graph, table or coordinate points
- writing linear equations from slope and point or two points
- graphing linear equations
- converting equations from standard to slope intercept form
- interpreting slope intercept form
- writing equations in slope intercept form for word problems
8PreAlg U4 Linear Relationship Study Guide.pdfU4 Study Guide Answer Key
Corrections:
- #21 m = 3, b = -2
- #36 is B
Friday, Jan 24, 2020
After correcting HW, we discussed how to write linear equations from real life situations. We worked on p 139 in the book and related y = mx+b to real life situations.
Thursday, Jan 23, 2020
More practice today with comparing and contrasting linear equations. Students worked on p 151 #1-17 in the book.
Wednesday, Jan 22, 2020
Prior to the quiz, we discussed HW on slope intercept form and how to compare the "steepness" of a graph using the slope. After the quiz on slope intercept form, we continued practice with rearranging equations from standard into slope-intercept.
Tuesday, Jan 21, 2020
Quiz tomorrow on slope intercept form . . . students worked today equations to practice for the quiz as well as rearranging from slope intercept form. Quiz tomorrow will cover writing equations in slope intercept form from points, slope and a point, and from a graph.
Friday, Jan 17, 2020
More practice with writing equations from two points
Thursday, Jan 16, 2020
After correcting HW, we learned how you can write an equation in slope intercept form using two points - first by calculating the slope! Students worked on practice problems with their table in their notebook before practicing further on NearPod as a class.
Wednesday, Jan 15, 2020
More practice with writing equations in slope-intercept form . . . students completed the evens from the HW from last night and then completed the evens. Students also practiced on Buzz math "Writing in y = mx+b."
Tuesday, Jan 14, 2020
After our quiz on slope, students shared their notes on slope intercept form from last night. We discussed the meaning of each of the variables in y = mx+b. Then we learned how to write equations in slope intercept form based on the info provide - from a graph or from just a slope and a point. We wrote a few example problems in our notebooks and then practiced further together on white boards.
Monday, Jan 13, 2020
More practice with slope in prep for the quiz tomorrow on calculating slope. Students practiced on Khan and the p 145 #3-6 in the book.
Friday, Jan 10, 2020
More practice with calculating slope from points . . . students corrected their HW from last night and reworked some of the problems. Some practiced further independently on Buzz Math "Positive and Negative Slope."
Thursday, Jan 9, 2020
Students shared what they learned from last night's video on calculating slope between two points. We practiced a few problems together in their notebooks and then continued independent practice on Buzz Math "Intro to Slope" and "Calculating Slope."
Wednesday, Jan 8, 2020
More practice finding slope from graphs today . . . students finished the worksheet from yesterday on graphing linear equations and then practiced further finding slope on Buzz Math "Introduction to Slope."
