It's a New Semester and time for a fresh start! All grades from student's 2nd marking period, semester final exams, and semester grades have been submitted and will be sent home on Tuesday.
MONDAY - TUESDAY On Monday, students will take the preassessment for unit 4 and then start a card sort activity on linear equations and their graphs. Learning Target: Understanding properties of linear equations, tables and graphs Success Criteria: Students are successful if they can: -describe a graph as either increasing or decreasing -find the y-intercept and slope from a linear graph -use the y-intercept and slope to write the equation of the graph in y=mx+b form -identify ordered pairs (or table values) that belong to the graph -compare linear graphs to each other WEDNESDAY - THURSDAY Learning Target: Quickly graph linear equations in slope-intercept form Success Criteria: Students are successful if they can: -use the y-intercept and slope (rise/run) to quickly plot two points and draw the line from an equation in slope-intercept form FRIDAY Learning Target: Quickly graph linear equations in standard form Success Criteria: Students are successful if they can: -find the y-intercept by substituting a 0 for x and solving -find the x-intercept by substituting a 0 for y and solving -plotting the ordered pairs for the intercepts and drawing the line

This is FINALS WEEK. We have half days on Thursday and Friday and students need to come and take their 1st, 2nd and 3rd hour final on Thursday and 4th, 5th, and 6th hour final on Friday.
MONDAY Review Unit 2 for the Final Exam Learning Target 1: Solve and graph inequalities Success Criteria: -solve one and two step equations -remember when graphing open circle is for < or > and closed circle for ≤ or ≥ -graph compound inequalities using OR for "opposite directions" and AND or compound as "in between" -solve compound inequalities by using opposite operations on BOTH sides of the inequalities Learning Target 2: Solve and graph compound inequalities Success Criteria: You are successful if you can - graph compound inequalities using OR for "opposite directions" and AND for "in between" -graph compound inequalities with x in the middle as "in between" -solve compound inequalities by using opposite operations on BOTH sides of the inequalities Learning Target 3: Solve linear absolute value equations. Success Criteria: You are successful if you can - remember that absolute value is the distance a number is from zero and cannot be negative - absolute value problems can have 2 solutions (one going in either direction of zero of the number line - isolate the absolute value bars and then "break the problem out of jail" by separating it into the POSITIVE and NEGATIVE sides and solving. Learning Target 4: Solve linear absolute value inequalities Success Criteria: You are successful if you can - isolate and break the problem into the positive and negative sides - remember to flip the inequality on the negative side - solve both sides of the inequality by getting x by itself - graph the solution remembering that > are treated like or and < are treated like AND (GOAL - greater is or, and for less than) Learning Target 5/6: Given a scenario, complete a table of values, calculate the unit rate of change, and identify the independent and dependent variables. Success Criteria: You are successful if you can - identify the independent as the x values in the table and the dependent as the y values -use first differences of the y-values to find the unit rate of change -complete the table and use the values to form ordered pairs and graph TUESDAY - WEDNESDAY We will review our post assessments from Unit 3 and students will have a chance to make up the Learning Target they scored below a 70% on. LT1: Use algebraic properties like distribution and combining like terms to solve equations. LT2: Understand linear equations in slope-intercept form, graph it, and find the x and y intercepts LT3: Understand linear equations in standard form, graph it, and find the x and y intercepts LT4: Convert between linear equations in slope-intercept and standard form. THURSDAY Final exams for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd hour FRIDAY Final exams for 4th, 5th, and 6th hour This week we will be taking our Winter MAP Growth Test. It is also the last week to make up your Unit 3 Quiz or Test at tutoring.
MONDAY No School - MLK Day! TUESDAY Review all 4 Learning Targets from Unit 0. Learning Target 1: Modeling Fractions Success Criteria: You are successful if you can - Model a fraction from it's number -Give the fraction from a model -Divide a number line into equal parts of a fraction Learning Target 2: Solving 1 and 2 Step Equations Success Criteria: You are successful if you can Use Reverse order of operations PE(MD)(AS) to isolate the variable GET X BY ITSELF! Learning Target 3: Plotting and Giving the Location of Ordered Pairs on the Coordinate Plane Success Criteria: You are successful if you can -Plot an ordered pair (x,y) where x is the horizontal location and y is the vertical location on the coordinate plane -Give the location of an ordered pair in (x,y) format Learning Target 4: Completing an Input/Output Table and Graphing the equation on the coordinate plane. Success Criteria: You are successful if you can -Substitute a value for x into the equation and solve for y -Give the ordered pair for the corresponding x and y values -Graph and draw the line WEDNESDAY - THURSDAY MAP Growth Test - we will have a modified schedule. All students will go to their 1st-3rd hours on Wednesday and their 4th-5th hours on Thursday FRIDAY Learning Target: Review all 5 learning targets from Unit 1 in preparation for our test on Friday Learning Target 1: Independent and Dependent Variables look at the graph of a function and determine the dependent variable (the y-axis) and the independent variable (the x-axis) read a word problem and pick out the independent variable (the variable that you control) and the dependent variable (the think that follows the independent variable - changes as a result of the independent variable) Learning Target 2: Vertical Line Test -draw a vertical line ANYWHERE on the graph and there and it hits ONLY ONE POINT. If the line hits more than one point, the graph is not a function. Learning Target 3 - Characteristics of Graphs Describe a graph as having: -an absolute minimum (low point), maximum (high point) or neither -as a function or NOT a function (use the vertical line test) -as increasing (going up as x increases), decreasing (going down as x increases), or constant -as continuous (line or curve) or discrete (points) -give the function family linear, quadratic, exponential, linear absolute value, or piecewise Learning Target 4 - Function Notation - convert an equation into function notation by replacing the dependent variable with f(x) or f(independent variable) - evaluate a function for a value by substituting and simplifying the expression. Learning Target 5 - Domain and Range -- determine the domain and range of a function by looking at it's graph - determine if the input/output table values of an equation are those of a function or not -create a mapping of a function Welcome Back! I hope everyone had a restful Holiday break. This week we have no time to waste getting right back to work on Unit 3. We will have a test on Friday that covers all 4 Learning Targets from the Unit.
