Integrated Math

This week in Integrated Math, we will be exploring the third and final rigid transformation, reflections. We see reflections everywhere in the world around us when we take the time to look. To kick off the week, students will engage in an interactive simulation with reflections, followed by a few practice problems. Lastly, the week will end with a transformation art project, due 4/22, on which you will get to showcase your creativity as well as demonstrate your understanding of rigid transformations. 

Algebra 2

This week in Algebra 2, we will launch our in-depth study of exponential functions. Given the current pandemic, students are hearing phrases such as “growing exponentially” and “exponentially more” and seeing graphs regularly in the news. What better time to find out what those things actually mean?! 

Pre-Calculus

In Pre-Calculus this week, we will use our newly-acquired matrix operation skills to solve systems of equations. Specifically, we will learn a strategy called Gaussian Elimination, named after a famous German mathematician, Carl Friedrich Gauss.
