IMP 100
On Monday we will have a quiz on conversions. We've had a few worksheets as homework to cover this idea. Yesterday I assigned a worksheet on solving equations with some conversion review. Prior to that we did a calculator activity called the "longest ship canals" and another worksheet called convert.
IMP 200
We've had the following homework assignments: "cake eating frenzy," "Car depreciation," and "Dice."
Geometry
We will have a test next class. 4.5 page 227 1-19, 4.6 Worksheet, 4.7 p 237 1-10, and 4.8 p243 1-10
Experimental Math
We have completed and assessed the Beanbag Lab and the Estimating and Measuring Lab. We are working on learning about the basics of motion.

IMP 100:
Last week was the first week of a new semester and so we've begun a new unit on conversions. There were two assignments last week "Funny looking ones" and a conversion table.
This week we will have another assignment on conversions focusing on setting up equivalences and simplifying expressions involving fractions.
IMP 200:
Last week we started a unit on exponential growth and decay, using the example of Alice's height from Alice and Wonderland. So far there have been two assignments: "Alice in Wonderland" and HW 1 "Graphing Alice."
Geometry 200:
Chapter 4.3, 1-18 on page 216
Statistics:
CO2 Linear Regression
Experimental Math:
We started a beanbag lab focusing on percent error and hypothesis writing.

IMP 100: We have a quiz today on functions and they were given an assignment last night HW 29. Next week is the last week of the semester and we will be compiling our portfolios and tying things up.
IMP 200: They have been working on their final statistics projects that will be due next week. A few students have chosen to take a final exam instead.
Geometry: Last week we finished chapter 3 and had a test. Many of the class did not show mastery of this chapter so we will be reviewing this chapter again today and students will have test corrections as a homework assignment.
Statistics: Yesterday we tried finishing projects started in chapter 3 and as small groups. Each student was given a list of missing assignments.
Advising: We volunteered at the Rescue Mission last week. This week we are going to be signing up for classes and going over credits.

Sorry for the delay in posts, it has been busy around here.
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.
IMP 200
Recent HW: HW 8, 9, Bacteria, HW 10, Measuring weirdness, How does chi squared work, Hw 12, Hw 13, Review of Statistics, Functions and graphs, Does age matter
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.

IMP 100
We have been working on linear equations and distribution. Tonight expect an assignment related to distribution and tomorrow's will be solving equations.
IMP 200
They've been taking notes one normal distribution and bell curves. Tonight's assignment is to create the bell curve for our bedtimes, finding sigma is sometimes difficult.
Geometry
We are well into chapter 3 and should have a work day in the lab on Tuesday and maybe a quiz on Thursday. The current topic is constructions and we had assignments in chapters 3.1, 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5
Statistics
We are working with variance currently. There will be an assignment tonight related to the topic.
Last week I gave a lot of book work and practice.
Advising
This week is conferences and we will be testing in advising period for a while.

IMP 100
There will be quiz on Monday on graphing linear equations. HW tonight was practice, there were 5 questions all on linear equations.
IMP 200
HW 2, 4, 6 have now been assigned
Geometry
We took our chapter 2 test on Tuesday and will begin 3.1 and 3.2 today. I have a worksheet 3.1+3.2 for their assignment tonight. If they prefer I can give them a book assignment instead.
Statistics
Thursday there was 5 graphs due, related to the rolling of dice and x bar. Last night I gave a book assignment and a worksheet for homework and we did a reading on why we divide by n-1 when working with x-bar. The worksheet was titled: standard deviation and CVars.
Advising
On Monday and Tuesday we watched "Dark Days" a documentary about the homeless in MYC who live under the subway. Most students are still working on their small group projects.

IMP 100 We are starting graphing. Tonight's HW will be practice with graphing. The last assignment was HW 15.
IMP 200 Is beginning a unit on probability. Today we did an in class project concerning mixed nuts. Some groups have yet to present. Our homework tomorrow will be HW 2.
Geometry: We just finished Chapter 2 and will have a test this week. There were 2 worksheets for chapters 2.1 + 2,2 and 2.3 + 2.4 we did 2.5 1-9 odd and 2.6 1-11 odd in the book.
Statistics: We finished out tests and did an in class assignment on Variation. Last class we begin studying normal distribution with dice data. We will finish working with this data today.
Advising: We went gleaning last Friday and it was absolutely great. All of the food we gathered was donated to Salvation Army. We had about 12 full boxes of fresh produce. This week we will be watching dark days on Monday and Tuesday. Thursday will be our free work day instead. Friday there will be no school. Friday is also the last day before midterm progress reports.
