We began with this opener (pdf).

Today's lesson (pdf) was reviewing solving quadratic equations by factoring and simplifying radicals.

Your homework for Thursday is:

1. Prepare for the Solving Quadratic Equations by Factoring Assessment on Thursday. There are a variety of ways to do that including, but not limited to: review the online pre-assessment; review your notebook and/or the openers and lessons posted on the blog; review the video, work some practice problems in your textbook or that you find online. You can, of course, also get help from me, another math teacher, a teacher in the Study Center, a peer tutor in the Study Center, or a parent, sibling or friend. Do whatever works best for you, but make sure you're prepared. The expectation is that you should all be able to do very well on this assessment.
   
   
2. Complete the Simplifying Radicals Online Pre-Assessment.
