Wednesday, 10/21/15: Reviewing Unit 1 Test

We're transitioning from Unit 1, on Equations, Inequalities, and Linear Functions, to Unit 2, Systems and Quadratic Equations.  [For any families looking ahead, Unit 2 is made up of the lessons in Modules (chapters) 9, 14, 15, and 16.]

Last Thursday and Friday it was necessary for us to take our a district-level performance task.  On Monday of this week, we reviewed the homework I'd assigned over the weekend, a review of Module 7 (p.241).  On Tuesday of this week, our first day of Unit 2, I started Lesson 9-1 on solving systems of linear equations by graphing, and assigned some systems for homework that night.

However, there was one remaining, unfinished piece of business, as we are transitioning fully into Unit 2.  I have been wanting to review my Unit 1 Test, which students took the week before last.  I put that as our top priority today; it worked with our short period today. (We were on an assembly schedule.)  We did review questions from that test during class.  No formal homework was assigned tonight, but tomorrow we'll be in a position to now move through the rest of Module 9--and through Unit 2.

Students should be reviewing the material in Modules 9, 14, 15, and 16.
