This week in Algebra 1...

Our week will culminate in the Equations Unit Test, covering: Properties of Real Numbers applied to solving Equations  One Step Equations  Two Step Equations  Multi-Step Equations Multi-Step Equations with Variables on Both Sides  Proportions  Literal Equations  A reminder that in order to qualify for a math test retake, 90% of the formative work for a unit must be completed on time. For this unit that will be 90% completion on HWs 8-14. Your chromebook is your calculator. Please come with it charged. You learn more about the Desmos calculator here: https://learn.desmos.com/graphing THIS WEEK : Monday - Proportions/Literal Equations  Tuesday/Wednesday: HW Quiz on HW 13; Unit Review Day Thursday/Friday: Equations Unit Test Reminders for help : NHS Tutor Link Ms. B's YouTube Channel Congratulations to the students of the week : David Sullivan (motivate) Luis Rodriguez (serve) These two have demonstrated an impeccable work ethic this week! Please see

This week will start with our first summative for the Equations unit, a quiz covering: One Step Equations  Two Step Equations  Multi-Step Equations There are no retakes on quizzes; please come prepared. YOU/YOUR CHILD MUST HAVE A CHARGED, FUNCTIONING CHROMEBOOK WITH THEM FOR THE QUIZ. This chromebook is your/their calculator. You learn more about the Desmos calculator here . THIS WEEK : Monday/Tuesday - Quiz  Wednesday/Thursday: Equations with Variables on Both Sides Friday/Monday: Literal Equations and Proportions Congratulations to the students of the week : MJ McKinney (advocate) Lillian Gartland (serve) These two have demonstrated an impeccable work ethic this week! Please see me for your Rockin' Rams pass and your piece of candy! Let's have a great week! - Ms. B

This week we start the first big unit in Algebra: Equations . A couple of notes: 1. Khan Academy - Students, please join Khan Academy at www.khanacademy.org , signing in with Google (SID@lcps.org and your LEAD password), and join with the following codes under the 'Teachers' tab: Block 1 - 93GPJDTB Block 5 - 2XTHDT4A Block 6 - US6T6G9S 2. Upcoming assignments - I have added a ' Live Syllabus and Working Calendar ' under the Classwork tab of each class section on Google Classroom. Here you can see what we did in class, just like the stream. Additionally, you can see tentative dates for the upcoming unit. All dates are subject to change. 3. Missing assignments - This weekend I discovered a 'disconnect' between the gradebook and Google Classroom. ParentVue and StudentVue will give you the most accurate picture of what work is missing... do not rely on the weekly emails from Google to tell you what is missing. Work will show as 'missing' in Go
