Algebra I: Today in math students began class with a Do Now and a set of warm up problems.  Next, students continued with chapter 8 and quadratic functions.  We then jumped back into chapter 8 and students were reviewing how to factor a given expression, as well as reviewing slope intercept form.  Students then reviewed quadratic functions in intercept form, f(x) = a(x - p)(x - q) and how to find zeros of a quadratic function after factoring it.  Next, students were introduced to modeling data and determining which type of function works best. After some teacher led instruction, students were assigned and given some class time to complete the activities in the practice workbook.  Workbook pages 273 & 274 will be due on Thursday in class.

Assignments:  Workbook pages 273 & 274 will be due on Thursday in class.
