We participated in a math lab today where we investigated the Pythagorean Theorem and discovered why it works and from where it comes with Lesson 6.1.

We did the first experiment together as a class; you'll do the 2nd and 3rd on your own tonight.

Homework: Finish textbook pages 315-329. Be sure to read the instructions carefully.

We worked on a piecewise function activity in class today (instead of Lesson 4.5). It was awesome!

When we come back from our Veteran's Day holiday, we'll be taking the Chapter 4 Test on Thursday. Be sure to study your pre-test, your chapter summary pages, and all the homework and class work from Chapter 4 to get yourself ready!

Today we reviewed the homework form last Thursday and took a look at some correct and incorrect solutions from the Function Carnival activity. It's not too late to finish it up, if you'd like (or have your parents try it!). See Thursday's post from last week for your class code.

After all that, we passed back MATHia grades and spent the rest of the class period working in MATHia.

We'll be taking our Chapter 4 test on Thursday this week! Ten minutes of studying a night will help set you up for success.

Today we passed back the chapter 3 tests, went over them together, and then went over last night's homework.

Once you've completed all three and answered the questions, have your parents give it a shot. Challenge them to see who can create a more accurate representation.

We'll take a look at all your creations together on Monday.
