Algebra I: Students began class with the Do Now and the Problem of the Day.  We then jumped into chapter 8 and continued our discussion of graphing quadratic functions.  Today students were introduced to vertex form and graphing quadratic functions presented in vertex form.  We watched a video online to help students put together identifying even and odd (or neither) functions.  After some teacher led instruction and several examples, students were assigned some homework from the textbook, page 446/447 #26; 31-34 all; 36; 38; 39; 43; 52; 57; 60, to be due on Tuesday in class.

Assignments:  Students were assigned some homework from the textbook, page 446/447 #26; 31-34 all; 36; 38; 39; 43; 52; 57; 60, to be due on Tuesday in class.

7th Grade Math: Students began class with the Do Now and the problem of the day.  Next, students were introduced to the percent proportion to help when finding parts, wholes and or percents.  After a bit of teacher led instruction, students were given class time to complete activities 1-3 on pages 121 and 122 in the practice workbook.  

Assignments: Review HW #50 is due on Wednesday in class.  Practice workbook pages 121-122 are due on Tuesday in class.  Students can and should be studying their fractions, decimals and percents for the test on April 13th.

Science:  Students began class with the Do Now, before students were given class time to begin (or continue) researching their assigned element.  Students are researching an assigned element in order to create an advertisement, "selling their element" to a target audience that each student will identify through their research.  

The final products will be due at the beginning of class on Monday April 9th.  

Assignments: Students can be completing their Selling the Element research paper, as it is due at the end of class on Tuesday.
