Assignments and Information for the week of 5/05/08

This week we will take our understanding of Linear Relationships and add the concept of SLOPE. Slope and the use of the y-intercept will help us to make educated guesses about the graph generated by a specific Linear Relationship, as well compare relationships to each other.

Please remember to submit all assignments timely to ensure the highest level of credit.

5/05/08 Grades and Expectations.
This is the last marking period for the year, and I believe it is very important that each student understands what is at stake for the remainder of the year. So today we will revisit the classroom expectations and I will have individuals discussions with everyone to talk about past performance and goals for this last six weeks.
