Intermediate Algebra Wednesday, September 30

Hi all,

I was out sick yesterday (Tuesday, September 29). Students had an independent, self-paced work day and overall did really well with it. They took a very quick pretest on solving equations to see where they were at, then watched a review video and took notes. There is one pink worksheet that was given as homework and is due on the block day.

Solving Equations Homework

We used our time in class today to practice solving multistep equations and literal equations. There was one tarsia puzzle students completed and one worksheet. Students were given the option to work alone or with a partner.

Students will be taking a benchmark on solving equations on the block day. They must pass with 80% (or 8/10) or higher. There is a retake available if students do not pass the first time. However, I encouraged students to study tonight and work hard to they pass the first time. I've listed some IXL that may help students review.

IXL- Algebra 1
J5, J6, J8, J9
