Wednesday, 9/17: Today, we reviewed p. 44 and talked about how to be successful in class by:
1.) Staying focused on the lesson.
2.) Asking questions when we're confused.
3.) Attempting each problem with the skills that we already have to figure out things we might not know yet.
It is my goal that each of the students in this class achieve their highest potential. This can only be accomplished if everyone gives me 100% of their effort and attention during each class period.
The Module 1 Test will be moved to Monday, September 22nd.
Tomorrow, we will review content from Module 1 by practicing more of the problems from topics which were more difficult. We will also start on our Module 1 Review.
On Monday, we have a double period. During our first session, we will review the answers to the Module 1 Review. Students will take the test during their second session. This is so that students have ample time to practice and review content, ask me questions, and feel confident going into their first test of the year.
Thursday, 9/18: Classwork-We completed the "Test Review" on p. 50 and reviewed answers. Then, we completed as much of the Module 1 Review as possible. We will review the answers to the Module 1 Review on Monday during period 3. Students will have their test during period 4.
