Day 1
- Introduce grouping. We're going to work with assigned partners for a while, changed randomly every few days, so you can get the experience of working with many different people. We're also going to focus on making excellent use of all class time -- this class doesn't have much homework for a reason, but that only works if we accomplish the same level of content coverage and practice that a class with homework would. And we can only do that if we are very focused during class time.
- Solving linear systems by hand. Practice on the quiz question from last week.
- Use desmos to help you get the equations right
- use whiteboard to solve the equations.
- check your work with desmos
- what to do when you think you're finished. I want you to begin practicing managing your time in a sophisticated way -- whenever you are finished with something, try to decide by yourself what the best next step might be. Here are some possibilities:
- ask for another problem
- Make up another related problem
- Check your work / share it with someone else and compare
- Work out other problems /use the text book or Khan
- Make entries in your notebook
- work on a math project
Day 2
- More solving equations and systems of equations by hand
Day 3
- Water works -- another (and probably last for a while) project by Desmos, that practices further representing complicated motions using graphs.
Day 4
- Quiz!! Quiz5-Week9
