Day 4

Review Day


Students will complete Examples 5 - 7 from Math30.ca on the smart board as a review activity at the beginning of class.

Students will receive a review packet to complete in class in groups of 4.


Homework: Finish review packet and study for test.













EXTRA CREDIT:

Have students explore http://www.coolmath-games.com/ and play 3 games and write a brief two - three sentence description on what math concept the game explores, if they enjoyed the game, and what improvements would they make to the game.

Day 3: Discuss zero, roots, and intercepts

Students will be introduced to the concept of using zeros, roots, and intercepts to help graph polynomial functions.

Students will be exposed to Math30.ca and complete examples 1-5 as a Smart Board activity!

Day 2: Can you recognize the graph?


During class the students will practice as a class with the IXL activity below after their continued lesson on graph behavior.


 Homework Assignment:

Students will use the recognition game on IXL for 5 mins. Students will screenshot their smart score after 5 minutes of play time. Students will then email their screenshoted results to their teachers by 11:59 p.m.
