Tuesday Feb 17 Review 8.1 homework. Go over, in class, 3 worksheets in preparation for a retake of the chapter 6 test on graphing lines using Y=MX + B
Wednesday Feb 18 Take chapter 6 Test. Review 8.1, introduce 8.2 solving a system of equations using substitution. Handouts on 8.1 and 8.2 Notes on 8.1 and 8.2 should be done and in your binders. Examples should be written down in your own words. Vocab should be listed and described in your own words. First 15 problems from both sections should be started.
Thursday, Feb 19 Pass back the chapter 6 retake. Discuss issues. Go over 8.1 worksheets and explain 8.2 on how to solve a system of equations using substitution. After 8.2 you should be able to find the solution set for two lines by graphing and by substitution. Students will be putting problems on the board and solving. Questions will be addressed and a quiz on 8.1 and 8.2 will be given. For homework finish problems up through 30 on section 8.2 and complete 8.2 Study Guide
Friday, Feb 20 Go over quiz from yesterday. Offer retakes for those that studied. Do 8.2 Practice Sheet. Read 8.3 together in class and take notes, write down examples and define vocab in your own words. We will work through the study guide together and for homework 8.3 practice needs to be completed. Students need to now know how to solve systems of equations using a new method called Elimination using Addition and Subtraction. Problems 1-29 in your textbook need to be completed. Read ahead for Monday’s lesson on 8.4, which will be the last method we will look at to solve systems of equations. All together there are 4 methods and each one will give the same answer. Lean to observe which will work best in a given situation.
DO NOT FORGET- IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO SET UP TUTORING WITH ME AND A PLAN OF ACTION FOR ANOTHER RETAKE OF ANY TEST OR QUIZ. LAST FRIDAY ONLY ONE PERSON CAME AFTER SCHOOL FOR HELP, EVEN THOUGH YOU KNEW A TEST WOULD BE GIVEN ON TUESDAY OR WEDNESDAY.
