Lesson Plans October 19-23

Monday-We will finish up Inequalities

Tuesday-Quiz over Inequalities

Wednesday-Students will start Rate of Change.  They will first use word problems to solve, then we will talk about what they will look like on the graph.  Students will have a punchline for homework.

Thursday-Students will continue Rate of Change.  They will now try to graph them themselves.  Students will have homework.

Friday-Rise up/Run out video…Student will learn why that will have to use rise over run instead of graphing.  We will watch the video and we will do an activity.  Students will have homework.

 

Inequality Videos

As you all know I will be out today.  Below are two videos to go along with the worksheet that the sub will pass out.  You will need to listen to it, not just copy what is going on.  When you get finished, please start the worksheet that you received in class yesterday.  It is NOT homework if you do not finish it.

Please be on your best behavior!!

Change in Lesson Plans

We have to decided to take a day to review for the quiz to make sure that students do not have any questions before we move on.  Two step equations are very vital for them to master.  If your student is struggling or needs extra help, please encourage them to come by and ask for help.  I am more than happy to help when I do not have a class or during their class.

QUIZ-MONDAY

Also PLEASE monitor your student’s skyward account and email me with any questions that you may have.  🙂

From Mr. Hinkle

Please monitor your child’s progress through Family Access by Skyward,  Inc.   Family Access is a secure Internet based website that will allow  you to easily keep track of nearly everything your student(s) does while  at school. Among other things, this service allows you to view your student’s attendance, grades,  schedule, progress, assignments, and emergency information. Family Access is a free service and is available to all parents/guardians with children enrolled in the district. Beginning with the 1st Marking Period, we will no longer send home a hard copy of your child’s progress  report or report card unless you request a hard copy. (This is consistent with the policy at the high school.) You will be able to access  this form by going to WOISD.net and then under “Campuses” click Middle. The link to the form will be under the calendar. For additional information related to Skyward, if you are having difficulties signing in to Skyward, or if you do not have Internet access and are requesting a hard copy of your child’s progress report/report card for each marking period, please call Ms. Cowart at 903-291-2085 or email her at [email protected].
