Friday, January 20th

In an unprecedented fashion, I assigned homework over the weekend! Crazy, I know, but we have to prepare for our gold test next Tuesday, January 24th!

Students have been working incredibly hard learning 3 methods of creating equivalent expressions. Here is a list of the 3 methods:

  1. using the Distributive Property
  2. using the Factoring Out method
  3. combining Like Terms

We have taken many, many pages of notes, worked a multitude of problems and I think we are just about ready to test. Completing the study guide this weekend will allow students to pinpoint problem areas that cause them to stumble and then we can fix their procedural knowledge on Monday! Parents, please ensure your student comes to class Monday with their study guide complete!
