Week of 9/29

This coming week we will be wrapping up Unit 1.  I plan on having the Unit 1 Post Test early next week (week of 10/6).  I will also be handing out the Unit 1 Project later this week.  

We will be learning about the Distributive Property and how to use it to generate equivalent expressions this week.  This is a major concept that ties into GCF.  In preparation for these lessons you can check out the links below.

Learn Zillion

I have created classes on LearnZillion so that you will have access to videos and quizzes that correlate with what we are learning in class.  I will be handing out access codes for everyone so that you can create your own account and participate in assignments.  I have posted assignments for Unit 1 in preparation for the post test.  You will watch the assigned videos and then take a brief quiz.  Your results and completion are recorded and sent to me so please make sure you are completing the assignments.  Your performance on the assignments will only count towards your grade as far as whether or not you completed them.  So your actual score on any quizzes does not count toward your grade.  

You will find that the assignments are not nearly as challenging as the work we complete in class and for homework.  The purpose of these assignments is to insure we have basic understandings of concepts.
