Close Out Week

This is the last week for my morning classes. There are 3 more afternoon classes.
In most every class there is a portfolio due, it is worth 25% of the final grade so most energy is being focused there. Students are redoing quizzes and tests for better scores and doing their final assessments. In IMP 100 and 200 there is a final assessment that will only help the students overall grade. In Pre-Calc there is a final that will be averaged in as a normal test. Geometry and Combinatorics have no finals although Geometry will have a math savager hunt.

April 21st

Mid-Semester progress reports are coming home to you all. The grade your student received was 50% HW and 50% tests/quizzes. Their actual grade will most like be improved when I factor in participation and their portfolio.

IMP 100
Group Presentation of word problems
HW 11 Line Up

IMP 200
Introduction to Exponential Equations
Exponential Packet: pages 1-4 at this point

Geometry
We derailed onto a proof concerning mid-segments
5.4 was assigned yesterday

Combinatorics
Test 2 review was assigned last week
Test 2 happened this week
