Our first unit of study is Number.

On Monday 9/8 we looked at classification of numbers. Here are the slides from class. Your HW for Monday night is page 6 of your textbook, Ex. 1.1 #1-10. Here is a handout with the HW.

On Tuesday 9/9 we looked at place value, number systems, base ten, and base two. Here are the slides from class.

On Wednesday 9/10 we looked at Venn Diagrams and the four number sets we will be using most often in this class - real numbers, rational numbers, integers, and natural numbers. Here are the slides from class and here is your homework (Page 41-42 Ex. 2.1 #1-11).

On Thursday 9/11 we looked at numbers in calculations, sig figs, and percent error. Here are the slides from class and here is your HW (Page 45 (Ex. 2.2) #1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 9.

On Friday 9/12 we have a quiz on number sets, Venn Diagrams, sig figs, and percent error. We then listened to a RadioLab program about Numbers - here is the link, and we specifically listened to the "Innate Numberss?" portion, though the rest are definitely worth listening to as well!
