Agenda for the week of Oct. 25th

Monday, Oct. 25th
Objective: ASWBAT use class time to work on Molly's Manual.
HW: Molly's Manual - Final Draft due tomorrow, Oct. 26th

Tuesday, Oct. 26th - Lesson 4.1.1 & 4.1.2
Objective: ASWBAT understand all connections for a pattern: a graph, a table, a geometric presentation, and an equation. Specifically, ASWBAT identify the connections between the growth of a pattern and its linear equation by finding the algebraic rules relating the figure number of a geometric pattern and its number of tiles.
HW #25 - #4-3 to #4-7 (NOT #4-5)

Wednesday/Thursday, Oct. 27th/28th - Lesson 4.1.2 & 4.1.3
Objective: ASWBAT identify the connections between the growth of a pattern and its linear equation by finding the algebraic rules relating the figure number of a geometric pattern and its number of tiles. Students will also connect linear geometric patterns with patterns in a graph, specifically focusing on how a geometric pattern grows and how the size of Figure 0 can be determined from information in a graph.
HW #26 - #4-14 to #4-17

Friday, Oct. 29th - Lesson 4.1.4
Objective: ASWBAT identify rules for linear patterns using the y=mx+b form of a linear equation and understand the meaning and purpose of "m" and "b"
HW #27 - #4-21 to #4-25

Agenda for the week of Oct. 18th

Monday, Oct. 18th - Chapter 3 Review
Objective: ASWBAT review and present on a Ch. 3 topic in which they feel is the most difficult.

Wednesday/Thursday, Oct. 20th-21st - Manual Work Time
Objective: ASWBAT review Ch 3 Group Test & Work on Molly's Manual
HW: Molly's Manual - Rough Draft due Friday, Oct. 22nd
