During Monday's class, students will be reviewing for our first summative assessment. In order to prepare for this assignment, students will be given a practice test and an answer key. Students are encouraged to carefully check their work against the answer key. Additionally, students may choose to use the app "Class Kick" in order to prepare for the assignment. I will be available through the app from 8pm-9pm on Monday night in order to help students with any last minute questions they might have before we take our summative assessment. In order to take advantage of this extra help session, students can login into ClassKick with our class code. When a student has a question, they can "raise their hand" virtually through the app. I am then able to write on that student's iPad in order to check work or to give hints for how to correctly solve the problem. During class on Tuesday, students will complete the Unit 1 Summative assessment.
Unit 2: Reasoning and Proof
Once the summative assessment wraps up, we will spend our class time on Wednesday and Thursday starting our next unit. We will focus on deductive reasoning on Wednesday and on logic statements on Thursday. This will serve as the basis for our unit, when we start to form logical arguments. Students will learn about how to create a two-column proof. This style of proof allows students to form an argument stating "what they know" in one column and "how they know it" in the second column.
