Outlook for November 23 - November 25

Good Morning!

This will be a short week due to Thanksgiving Break!!

Work hard and enjoy the time off to relax and be with family!

For Precalculus:

On Monday we'll finish talking about section 4.3 which involves exponential functions.
4.3 problems include: #21,23,26,27,29-36,37-65 odd,67-74,75,79,81

On Tuesday we'll introduce section 4.4 which covers logarithmic functions.
4.4 problems include: #9-65 odd,67-74,75-109 every other odd, 118,119,123

Wednesday is a shortened period to work on all of the problems above.

Please complete as much as you can before Thanksgiving Break. There will be a test on 4.1 - 4.4 on Wednesday, December 2nd over these sections and since I won't be here, it is very important that you get everything in order as soon as possible. As I have said so many times, READ and READ and READ the sections. The text is very well-written and easy to follow. You will make life so much easier if you do this!


For Algebra II:

Today was very exciting; we began Chapter 5 - Polynomials. The first section covers monomials.

5.1 Problems: #25 - 49 odd

Tuesday we'll cover 5.2 Dividing Monomials.

5.2 Problems: #17 - 59 odd

We'll skip section 5.3

On Wednesday we'll have a preview of 5.4 - 5.6 since I won't be here next week. You'll need to rely on good study habits for next week!

For Algebra:

I am concerned that we are not all on the same page - literally.

You should all be up to section 4.5 by Tuesday. The problems from sections include the following:

Section 4.2: 9 - 48 odd
Section 4.3: 14 - 32 all
Section 4.4: 11 - 41 odd

Please work hard! We have just Tuesday and Wednesday and then we are off on a great and exciting vacation! We will see and learn so much!! I am so excited to be going with you all; I have not been to Washington DC since I was in 8th grade which was a pretty long time ago!

Tuesday we'll go over section 4.5 which covers the slope of a line, and finish up any other questions you may have from previous sections.

Wednesday is a shortened period and there will be a quiz covering sections 4.1 - 4.4 with a possible extra credit problem from 4.5 since we will not have had much practice with slope yet.


For Physics:

On Friday we began Chapter 7 - Momentum. It is a relatively short chapter, and we'll be working on problems from our Multiple Choice worksheets as well as our book.

Problems from the text include:
Chapter 7: #3,5,7,15,16,17,19,21,23,25,27**,33

There will be a test on Chapter 7 on Tuesday after Thanksgiving. Please be prepared! On Monday, although I won't be here, you should use this day to work together on the multiple choice worksheet, since this gives examples of concepts.

Have a great short week everybody!

Also have a Happy Thanksgiving with friends and family!!!

I will be joining the 8th grade on Sunday morning for Washington DC and we'll be back very late Thursday evening. I'll see the rest of you on Monday, December 7

Mrs. Little
