Class Notes 9/15

Today in class I had the opportunity to actually have my students in my class for the first time after the split last week. As a class we went over a few different things. Even though the students had gotten a syllabus from Ms. Smith's class I felt that it was necessary to give them a syllabus for my class. We went over the syllabus and also went over classroom expectations. We also did a quick intro around the room so the students could get to know me and I could get to know them. After all that was accomplished we spent the rest of class doing group work and then working out problems on the board.

Homework due Wed 9/17:
Signed Syallbus
Log into Khan Academy and work on the Two Step Equations Intro section that I mentioned. This will help lead into the next section that we will cover.

Class notes 9/10

Today the split of Ms. Smith's large 7th grade algebra class took place and half of the students found out they would be coming to my class from now on. Even though the split happened Ms. Smith and I kept the two classes together for the day and we took the students to the computer room in the library and helped the students set up their Khan Academy accounts which we will be working with all year.

The assigned homework:
pg 19 #3, 13-37 odd and 42.
Also pleas get used to signing into your Khan Academy account at home and get used to the site.

See you all in the next class,
Mr. Schroth
