Challenges for the February Recess
Home Nugget #36
Assigned on Friday February 15, 2013
Due on Monday February 25, 2013
Prior to the February break we discussed at length how valuable it would be to spend time reviewing and re-examining content from the first half of the year. Such an endeavor would serve many purposes including getting multiple exposures to topics and alleviating some of the pressure of preparing for a final exam at the conclusion of the school year.
What follows is a list of the lessons we've covered and the major topics from those sections. My advice is to select problems to work through and check in the back of the book for each lesson and to review your class notes to remind yourself of how we unpacked and made sense of each topic. You are encouraged to take notes and to create a study guide.
We will have an evaluation on Tuesday or Wednesday of the week we return to give you a chance to prove competency of content covered and additionally, to provide students with a chance to alter the third term grade which reaches it conclusion on Friday.
Good luck!
Lessons 1-1, 1-2, 1-4 and 1-5 which cover: Variables and Expressions, Order of Operations, Identity and Equality Properties and the Distributive Property
Lessons 2-1 to 2-6 & 2-8 which cover: Solving First Degree Linear Equations, Ratios and Proportions and Solving for a Specific Variable
Lessons 6-1 to 6-3 & 6-5 and 6-6 which cover: Solving Linear Inequalities and Inequalities Involving Absolute Value
Lessons 1-9, 3-1 to 3-5 which cover: Functions, Relations, Arithmetic Sequences, Proportional and Non-Proportional Relationships
Lessons 4-1, 4-3, 4-4, 4-5 and 4-6 which cover: Rate of Change and Linear Equations in Slope-Intercept, Point-Slope and Standard Form as well as Lines of Fit
Lessons 5-1 to 5-5 Systems of Equations and Solving Them Using Graphing and Algebraic Methods
Lessons 6-7 and 6-8 Graphing Systems of Linear Inequalities
