Wednesday HW

Here's your HW tonight:

1) Page 212: 1,3,5,7,11,12

Don't forget--tomorrow's a half day and a quiz, so study! Look through the packet I handed out (which I will check tomorrow while you do the quiz) to study.

Period B!!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys and gals! I took number 43 off your homework, so you don't have to do that for Monday! I hope you check this!

Next Few Days...

Soooo today we finished up some interpretations in class...we'll finish with R^2 on Monday. Here's the plan for the next few days:

Tomorrow in class we'll work on some practice problems in class in groups. Then, Friday I have my Math Modeling field trip so you'll be working on 3 AP problems in class--these will be a 36 point project grade! 12 points each! Focus, and make sure you do a good job! Then, over the weekend you'll have to read chapter 9--you can take notes if you like, if so, you can use them on a potential reading quiz.

Homework:

Wednesday: complete both the multiple choice worksheet and the chapter 8 worksheet you got in class. I'm going to grade this MC so do a good job!

Thursday: page 194: 42, 49. (but since I won't see you Friday I'll be checking this Monday while you take your reading quiz)

Friday: complete those AP problems in class! For homework you need to read chapter 9 and make sure you complete Thursday's book problems (I'll be checking them Monday).

New Link (Calculator Stuff)

I just found a pretty sweet website that outlines the processes for different functions on your calculator along with screen shots. I think it could definitely be pretty helpful as we continue to develop our library of calculator applications. You can find the link on the right under "Classroom Resources."

Monday HW

Sorry I didn't make it today. I swear I finished your tests this weekend though, I have them (and grades 100% up to date) for you tomorrow.

Make sure you get your subwork done (if you haven't)! It's all being graded for an 18 point project, so get it done!

Homework tonight:
page 189: 4, 21, 25, 26, 27, 41af

Almost the weekend...

No official homework tonight--since I haven't gotten your tests back and didn't do my homework, none for you tonight.

Here's the weekend homework if you'd like to get a head start:

Chapter 8
Page 189: 1, 3, 7, 13, 15, 17, 19, 27, 31

Short Week...

Homework:

Tuesday: Page 160: 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 19, 23, 31

Wednesday: finish chapter 7 multiple choice (quiz grade)

Today in class we'll wrap up our chapter 7 notes. Tomorrow, you'll start with an activity exploring correlation, and then begin the chapter 7 MC in class.

Period B Students: since tomorrow is PSAT day, you don't have class--if you like, you're welcome to come to Statistics periods E or G (if you have lunch or study)!

Long Time, No Post...

It's been a few days...sorry about that.

STUDY FOR YOUR TEST!

TAKE HOME MULTIPLE CHOICE TEST DUE TOMORROW! No excuses. If you don't have this, you will receive a zero on the take home test.

Weekend Homework: Read chapter 7. Yes, you have a reading quiz. I promise.

See you all Tuesday! (If I don't see you tomorrow when I'm off to MCC).

Lot's of News (and Tues/Wed Homework)

Sorry about the lack of post yesterday.

Monday's Homework: Chapter 6 MC questions (22 @ 2points = 44 point Quiz grade!)

Tuesday/Wednesday Homework: Complete the following problems from page 131 in your book (all are reprinted on the handout from class): 1, 3, 13, 20, 25, 27, 29, 35, 38.

This will be graded as a 12 point project grade. You will be graded solely on effort, as these problems are intended to prepare you for the quiz. To receive all 12 points you must show all of your work/calculations on a separate sheet of paper.

AFTER SCHOOL REVIEW FOR OUR TEST IS THIS WEDNESDAY!

And last, but certainly not least, we'll have our unit one test on Friday. I WILL NOT BE HERE. I'll be at MCC with my math modeling classes. It your your responsibility to be on time and immediately start the test; whatever you do not finish will be considered incorrect. Be responsible, come in, grab your test, and work quietly for the duration of the period.

Thursday HW: On Thursday night you will be given a take home MC portion of your test. This will be collected Friday.

I will be returning to school F period so all work MUST be handed in. I will grade both the take home (MC) and in-class (open ended/FR) portions of the test this weekend.

Weekend Homework

For Monday you'll need to finish up the SAT computer lab. NO LATE PAPERS WILL BE ACCEPTED! This is a 44 point project grade and seeing as we had 1.5 class periods to work on it there's no excuse not to have it Monday, and have it done well.

Also, remember to study for your VOCAB TEST MONDAY. I just whipped it up (during my meeting) and I think you should all do pretty well. Make sure you can list at least 3 types of graph for categorical data, and at least 4 types for quantitative data...

If you have any questions over the weekend you can always email me at fred.carofano@gmail.com.

It was nice to talk to some other Stat teachers from across the state today and find out we're right on track with our pacing. It's been a really great start for us this year--keep up the good work!

Enjoy some nice weather this weekend finally! Study your flashcards outside! See you Monday!
