We will be doing a unit on exponents, factoring and distribution. There will be a focus on graphing these equation, interpreting graphs and using appropriate technology. There will be nightly homework that maybe done during class. There will also be unit assessments consisting of Problem of the Weeks, quizzes and tests. In addition, a portion of your grade will be determined by your portfolio and participation in group work and class discussions.
Framework Goals:
Understanding patterns, relations and functions.
Apply appropriate techniques, tools, and formulas to determine measurements.
Analyze change in various contexts. Measurement.
Use mathematical models to represent and understand quantitative relationships.

Accurately solve problems that arise in mathematics and other contexts.
Apply and adapt a variety of appropriate strategies to solve problems
Select, apply and translate among mathematical representations to solve problems.
Apply transformations and use symmetry to analyze mathematical situations.
Course Title: DIY Craft
Grade Level: MS
Instructor: Jess
Credit Areas: Art
Prerequisite: None
Description:
This is a studio art class with a focus on independent art. We will be doing a unit on clay, plaster, paper mache, plastics and other 3D works. There will be a trip scheduled to SCRAP. Students will be expected to design projects, self monitor their time and find some of their own materials.
Framework Goals:
Use dance, theater/drama, and visual arts to express ideas.
Demonstrate a willingness to take creative risks, try new things and be productive
Course Title: Internships
Grade Level: Junior or Senior (or with permission)
Instructor: Jess
Credit Areas: Internship
Prerequisite: None
Description:
The Trillium Charter School Internship Program connects academic life with professional experience by providing high school students with the opportunity to develop their skills alongside working professionals in the community. By actively engaging their education and passions in the workplace, students in the program will be better prepared for employment, more confident in their skills and more knowledgeable of opportunities following high school.
Students will research, apply for and obtain an internship at an organization of their choice. Complete an Internship Contract, intern for the equivalent of 3 months for 4-6 hours per week, meet regularly with their internship advisor and complete evaluation forms.
Framework Goals:
Identify and participate in different levels of service involvement: Volunteerism, Community Service and Service learning
Identify and reflect on the impact of their service
Contribute constructively to an organization's unique structure, processes and mission.
Organize and manage details of service experience

11/4
Sorry its been a while, things have been very busy. If there are any parent volunteers out there who what to upload the homework to this site it may become more useful to everyone.
This is the last week of the quarter and your students I'm sure are feeling stressed. There will be very few new assignments in my math classes so students can get caught up on the material. I will be giving a final in IMP 3/4 and will probably give a makeup test to IMP 2/3 and IMP 2.
In advising all students have to have passed the Constitution Quiz, completed a PLP form or two and have a working portfolio at this point. Next quarter we will be working harder on having set things in our portfolio like syllabi, framework, transcripts and PLP documentations.
The Internship Program is also going well. In order to pass this quarter students must have done one of two things: 1. setup an internship, turned in a contact sheet and a resume or 2. participated fully in classes/trips and turned in a resume. For students with more than 15 hours of service they need to be turning in their midway reports.
In 3D art our pieces are just about finished, our clay pieces still need to be glazed but hopefully we get to that this week.
