Happy Memorial Day Weekend! I hope everyone gets out to enjoy the weather this weekend.
MONDAY No School - Memorial Day TUESDAY Learning Target: Use either FOIL or the BOX method to double distribute quadratic equations in factored form Success Criteria: Remember that distribution requires you to multiply everything outside the ( ) by everything inside. FOIL - First Outer Inner Last OR use the box method like a multiplication table going from y = (x + m)(x + n) to y = ax^2 + bx + c WEDNESDAY - FRIDAY The rest of this week we will be working on our last official learning target for the year. On Wednesday we will take notes, and Thursday and Friday we will practice. Learning Target: Factor quadratic equations when the a=1 Success Criteria: Reverse FOIL or BOX to organize your math. When a=1, remember that we are finding factors that add to b and multiply to c in the equation y = ax^2 + bx + c

Reminder: Zombie projects were due Thursday. If you haven't already turned in your project - get it turned in ASAP.
MONDAY - WEDNESDAY Monday we will be taking the Pre Assessment for Unit 7, and then taking notes. Tuesday and Wednesday we will be Practicing. Learning Target: Understand Quadratic Functions and their Characteristics Success Criteria: You are successful if you can - Identify if a quadratic function has a maximum or a minimum - Identify the vertex (the ordered pair max or min point) - Identify the axis of symmetry as the line that splits the graph in 2 equal halves From an equation - The axis of symmetry is x = -b/2a - The vertex is the ordered pair location where you can substitute the x value from the axis of symmetry into the quadratic equation and solve for y. THURSDAY - FRIDAY Learning Target: Use Double Distribution to simplify quadratic expressions. Success Criteria: Use either FOIL - First, Outer, Inner, and Last (x + a)(x + b) = x^2 + (b+a)x + ab OR use the box method to help organize and double distribute. Student progress reports go home on Tuesday. Please know that if you aren't happy with your progress this marking period, you should plan to come to tutoring to retake a Learning Target from the last Unit Test.
MONDAY - TUESDAY Learning Target: Understand and model exponential growth and decay functions. Success Criteria: You are successful if you can: - Create a Table of Values from your initial value and the rate of growth of your function - Write a Function using the form f(x) = a*b^x where a is the initial value and b is the growth or decay rate -Use your table and function to create a graph of your data WEDNESDAY Trip to CJ Barrymore's. NO class today THURSDAY Learning Target: Analyze models and data that use exponential growth or decay functions. Success Criteria: You are successful if you can -Use your data to determine an the x value or time it takes for an exponential function to hit a growth or decay target. FRIDAY Learning Target: Review how to plot slope-intercept equations on a graph Success Criteria: You are successful if you can - Use the y-intercept to plot the first point on the graph - Use the slope to find the rise up and run over to the next set of points - connect the points to form a line. Progress report grades will be turned in this Friday. Students have this week to turn in any missing work or come to tutoring to make up or retake the Unit 6 quiz.
MONDAY Learning Target 5: Writing exponential functions from a situation. Success Criteria: You are successful if you can - identify the initial value a and the rate of change b to help write the exponential function f(x) = a*b^x TUESDAY - WEDNESDAY We will be reviewing for the post assessment by completing a study guide and playing Kahoot. Learning Target: Review how exponential functions work, how to evaluate and simplify exponents and square roots, and how to write exponential functions Success Criteria: You are successful if you can - LT1: Evaluate an exponent or square root remembering that an exponent gives the number of times a base number is multiplied by itself and a square root does the opposite operation. - LT2: Identify from an exponential equation, table or graph if the function is growth or decay - LT3: Simplify exponents using the multiplication and division properties - LT4: Simplify square roots by dividing the exponent under the radical by the index number of the root. Change the format to exponential by creating a fractional exponent from the index number - LT5: Write an exponential function in the form f(x) = a*b^x givin a is the initial value and b is the rate of change of the function THURSDAY Unit 6 Post Assessment on Exponential Functions FRIDAY Learning Target: Understanding how to write an exponential growth and decay function, create a table of values, and graph the function. Today we will be starting our project for the unit on Exponential Functions! |
