HW: Quiz 4.4 - 4.5 is tomorrow, 9/15. On WS 4.5 do 1 - 15.
We went over both circuit training worksheets, grouping and solve by factoring. Both of these were collected. Students worked with a partner on a 10 question partner quiz 4.4. We graded these in class and students kept these to use for studying.

2nd hour completed a 4 question entrance slip on factoring. Then students factored 12 other expressions and put their answers on the board and we checked for correctness. Then we worked together to complete the 4.5 Cornell notes which focused on solving a quadratic equation using factoring and the ZPP (zero product property). We completed 7 examples together.

Quiz 4.4 - 4.5 is Friday, 9/15. Students completed 12 factoring problems and peers put these problems on the boards. We checked these together. We also played a Kahoot game to review factoring by using the box method. Students in 6th hour completed a 4 question exit slip. WS 4.4 Test Prep/Enrichment & WS Circuit Training #2 were both collected.
HW: Complete WS Circuit Training - factoring by grouping Students worked at the whiteboards as we used about 30 minutes of class to review the different factoring methods from section 4.4. The we saw how the grouping method (given 4 terms) is just a variation of the box method. If students do not wish to use the box method, we used the idea of grouping the first 2 terms together & then the last 2 together and taking out the GCF of each group. This should give a common group to factor out.

Turn in your WS Circuit Training from last Friday. Students in 6th hour were given back their first tests. Any reassessment for 4.1 - 4.2 must be completed by September 20th. We went over the WS Circuit Training - factoring. We had more practice using the box method as well as guess and check. Students then had 15 - 20 minutes to work on the second circuit training worksheet.
Use the links for review or practice (factoring trinomials when a is not 1) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXDOMz2BGWI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fwH-Bvfnip0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFf7oDJp1pQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZXqarVETZ2w HW: Complete WS Circuit Training - factoring when a is not 1. Second hour received their first back today. Nice work! Reassessments for those scoring 2 or lower are due by September 20th. 6th hour will be theirs back tomorrow.
We went over factoring methods of GCF, difference of squares, perfect square trinomials, simple trinomials where a = 1 and the Box method for factoring a trinomial with the leading coefficient something other than 1 or a GCF. For those not wanting to use the Box method, we demonstrated how one could use guess and check. We also completed the first 3 - 6 problems on the Circuit Training Worksheet.

HW: Enjoy the day! We used the entire class period to go over the 4.1 - 4.2 study guide. All solutions are posted on the honors algebra 3-4 page. Click the button below.
HW: Test 4.1 - 4.2 is tomorrow, September 6th. Any missing work is due as well. We went over the back side of WS 4.2 Practice and the WS 4.2 Test Prep. Both of these were collected. 6th hour discussed the quiz 4.1 -4.2. All students received a study guide 4.1 - 4.2 for the upcoming test on Wednesday, September 6th. Any missing work is due on September 6th.
HW: Complete the study guide. |
