Midterms
This past weekend I calculated each student's midterm grade. The grade on the progress report inly reflect HW and assessment scores. In IMP a student that has not shown mastery of half the material but is doing the assignments they can take the class for 1/4 credit instead of 1/2 credit. I will mention on the progress report any topic not mastered by the student so they know where to focus.
IMP 100
We are finishing a unit on distribution and should have an assessment opportunity at the end of the week. Yesterday assignment 16 was given out it should be turned in today for full credit. Today students who are caught up on assignments will be watching "The Story of One" by Terry Jones. This is in preparation for our next topic, unit conversions.

9/21/10 Week 2
I have been pleasantly surprised by all of my classes so far. So thank you students and families for getting us off to a good start. This week there will be quizzes in IMP 100, IMP 200 and Pre-Calculus. If a student does not show mastery with the quiz they will be encouraged to retake the quiz in a few weeks. Hopefully this will decrease any anxiety students are experiencing while still holding them accountable to the material.
IMP 100:
HW 2, HW 3, and HW 6 are past due. HW 8 is due tomorrow, many students have already turned it in. We will have a quiz on Thursday on: graphing, order of operations and substitution and evaluation. Students can show mastery of all three topics or any combination. On Tuesdays and Thursdays smaller groups will form to better meet individual's needs.
IMP 200:
"patio," and HW 29 are past due. Tomorrow all students are suppose to come to class with a graph of two points and their slopes determined. There will be quiz on linear equations on Thursday.
Geometry 200:
Chapter 0.1 (#3, 4, 5, 7, 8), Chapter 0.3 (#1-7) are past due. Chapter 1.1 (1-31 odd) is due tomorrow.
Pre-Calculus:
At this point little in the way of homework is being formally collect from the students. So far everyone is living up to the expectations of the class. I will be collecting page 4 from the packet "Function function whats your junction" Thursday. Also on Thursday there will be quiz on set notation, and functions, anything covered in class or from the homework is fair game.
Math and Art:
The first graded assignment is due in three class periods. In class a rubric was handed out defining the expectations. The topic is two point perspective.

Welcome Back 9/13
Welcome back to another year of math. For those of you new to following this blog let me explain what can be found here. Generally, I will give weekly or bi-weekly reports for each of my math classes. This consists of homework that has been previously assigned and currently assigned. Occasionally there will be announcements regarding projects, tests and class progress.
So far in each class every student has received a syllabus and there have been assignments in IMP 100, and Geometry. IMP 100 should be turning in HW 2 tomorrow and Geometry should be turning in work from page 4(#s 3,5,6,8 and 9.) IMP 200 is beginning with a short group activity that will be presented tomorrow.
Pre-Calculus and Math+Art meet for the first time tomorrow.

Closing Classes
In majority of my classes portfolios are due. Please help your students organize and get this last thing into me. There will be no new assignments in my classes only time to get caught up on past quizzes, projects and homework. Students will have bonus work available to them.
I will be collecting geometry books from students starting tomorrow. If you student has lost their book they will be responsible for the replacement.
In Statistics we are still working on presenting the bullying data, to the school. Students should be prepared to finish that work this week.
In advising this week we will be making plans for that last week of classes. I hope to have a field-day with them on Monday and on Tuesday a field trip.

Hope everyone is having a great spring break, I've just gone in to school to water my lovely plants. My student teacher Katie just finished her last week of teaching with us before the break, I will now be taking over all my classes again starting Monday. She will continue to help with the experimental mathematics class once a week.
I have set in my midterm grades to Nick so expect them shortly. Due to feedback, there are letter grades on the midterms not pass/fail. Only HW and tests were averaged together to get the midterm grade, so it is not completely accurate.
In IMP 100: We've been working on similar and congruent shapes and the ratios that exist between these shapes. Some students are struggling with prerequisite knowledge, ex:understanding of what 1/5 means.
In IMP 200: Before the break, we did a work sample involving interest rates and took a test on exponential functions. This class will begin a new unit on either trig or composition of functions, we'll see which one they prefer.
In Geometry we finished chapter 5 and will be moving on to circle geometry.
In Statistics we finished binomial distribution. I left them with a review of normal distribution over the break.
In Experimental Mathematics we finish a lab on friction.

Currently, this class will be working on a large group assignment that will serve as their final in this class.
Geometry 200
Recent HW: 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, and 3.8 today we will have test on all of chapter 3.
Statistics 300
Recent HW: Linear regression, the regression effect, Sustainable logging, (multiplication, combinations and permutations), and matching statistics to plots
In this class many students have group work out, this will have an impact on their final grade.
Advising
We are going to the homeless shelter tomorrow. We are also preparing for writing work-samples that will happen later this month.
Also at the end of this month we will be having a school wide project fair.
Starting semester 2 students will be taking over Thursday's and Friday's classes. From my advising they've generated 4 or 5 good ideas that they would be willing to run for at least one month.
Here is the most recent HW for IMP 100
HW 20, Where is speedy, HW 23, HW 25, graph of f(X)= (1/6)t^2 +20, HW 28 and To the Rescue
Many, many students in this class are behind in HW and would benefit from more time being spent on HW at home.
