We just finished Unit 4 on arithmetic sequences which leads us into the slope of a line.
The students calculated their walking rate per second by timing how long it took each of them to walk 10 meters. We will apply this to the distance formula: d = rt and discuss similar scenarios.
1/29 - Comparing walking rates. Homework will be a worksheet on cycling rates per hours. Students will make a table, graph data and write equations.
Since we have returned to school, we are finishing Unit 4. We have been working on patterns and sequences.
Monday - Students will be determining the function formula in order to find any term in a sequence.
Tuesday - Students will learn the explicit or closed formula to find a term in a sequence.
Wednesday - Writing test. More practice with explicit formula
Thursday - Review for Quiz
Friday - Quiz on Arithmetic Sequences.
1/21 - No School
