Class update. Today we are working on the open-ended benchmarks. We will start the new unit (Geometry) tomorrow. Please keep in mind the following things. We have a S.I assignment (#6) which is due by Sunday night. Your Presidential Project is due Monday 12/12. I am putting the documents you will need on the side tab. You already have them, but in case you lost them they are there.
A few key things about the President's Project in order to get that "A" grade.
1. Your poster should be colorful and include pictures.
2. Neatness is very important.
3. In your summary, it's not good enough to just include numbers. Talk about the process you went through to complete your project (I went to Wal-Mart to buy posterboard doesn't count). Even more specifically, make sure to make comparisons between your data and the actual President's. For example, if you find the median age to be 74 (it's not though...) you could talk about a few of the President's who were close to that age, what party they were from, etc.
As of right now, HW for this week is as follows.
M - Study Island assignment due Sunday night
T - Study Island assignment due Sunday night
W - TBD, check back
TH - TBD, check back
F - Study Island assignment due Sunday night, President's project due Monday 12/12!
In honor of hunting season, I showed this video to 8th period (a few of you) about a week ago. This video went viral a little while ago and is pretty funny. Have a great day!!!
