What's Going On? May 7th through May 11th

Finishing Up Unit 11: Volume

At the beginning of this week, students will wrap up our 11th unit on surface area and volume.  Students who complete the review assignment will be eligible to use a formula sheet for the Tuesday's summative assessment.

In preparation for the summative, we will hold a Class Kick session on Monday night.  During this session, I will be available to go over any last minute questions related to the summative review and the "Tiny House" project.  We will spend Monday's class reviewing and will have our summative assessment on Tuesday.  Students will also be turning in their summative "Tiny House" projects on this day.

Please Note: The math department policy states that a student must attempt each summative in order to receive a grade for the course.  This means that the Tiny House project must be completed to receive a passing grade for the class!


Unit 12: Transformations

Once our summative is complete, students will start our transformation unit.  We will start off Wednesday's class by talking about the different symmetries that exist and students will go on a "Geometry Symmetry Scavenger Hunt".  This will take place outside, weather permitting.  Thursday's class will focus in on translations and vectors.
