7+Math

= = =7th Grade Math= =Matemáticas de Septimo Grado= 2013-2014 Miss Colleen __**27 de Junio:**__ Reflection time and wrap-up presentations Hand-back work HW: Submit Math and Science (both -overall and piece: a total of 4 plus work) sent to misscolleen@lapazschool.org by 8:00 pm on Sunday night (as discussed in class)

__**26 de Junio:**__ Presentations HW: Math and Science Piece reflection with pictures attached (sent to Ms. Colleen)

__**25 de Junio:**__ Presentations HW: Math and Science Overall reflections (sent to Ms. Colleen)

__**24 de Junio:**__ No Math this week: finish presentations/individual check-ins with Mr. Shannon and Ms. Colleen

__**18 de Junio:**__ Yes, it's time to start working on reflections. The attachments are below:
 * In class today: Portfolio Reflections**

You need to have these completed (ideally by the end of class today). It is all you will be working on, so it is reasonable to expect that you will finish your draft of these.

__**Assignment:**__ You can either do your two overall pieces (Math and Science) or both Math (piece and overall).

For the piece reflection, you may choose the linear equations test or one of your two projects for the trimester. You may choose something else, but you must write a thoughtful reflection.

You will likely want to wait until I have your projects graded and returned to you before writing the "piece" reflection. However, you do not need to have your pieces back to write a reflection. You could write about the process of creating the project and how you felt during the presentation, etc.

Either way, Jen will check to be sure that you have __**a paragraph**__ written for each box, before submitting to me. Please do NOT submit to me until both reflections are complete.

Send your two documents in __**one email, please**__**.** Thank you! If for some reason you finish early, you may write a subject reflection for Art, Music or PE (whichever you have this trimester)

__**17 de Junio:**__ 1) WARM-UP: work on individually and then review answers as a group/ Is it parallel, perpendicular or neither and share why. a) y = -3x + 2 and y = 1/3x -4 b) y = 1/2x -9 and y = 1/2 x -9 c) y= 3/4 x + 2 and y = 3/4 x + 5 d) y= 2x + 6 and y = -2/4x + 5 e) Convert from point-slope to slope intercept. y -3 = 2 (x -2)

2) Look back at notes and then work through these three review pages.





Turn in your work. We will review all these concepts when I return!

3) You can start on your Overall __**Science**__ Portfolio Reflection if done early. You'll work on Math tomorrow in class.

__**16 de Junio**__ What a wonderful trip! We'll have to get a slide show squared away asap so that you have a momento of the trip! I am so proud of you all! Thank you for making it enjoyable for me as well, despite rain, mosquitoes and mud!

For class today: __**1) WARM-UP:**__ Parallel, Perpendicular or Neither (and explain why) a) y = ½ x + 5 and y = -2x + 3

B) y = 3x -4 and y = -3x + 5

C) y= -1/2x + 5 and y = 2x – 7

D) y = 2x +9 and y = 2x + 8

E) Change this from slope-intercept form to standard form. Given equation: y = 6x + 2

F) Is this line proportional: y = 3x + 8 (Why or why not)


 * 2) Review of Classifying Triangles as a group p. 274 and w****rite key information in notebook:**
 * Work on pages 277-278 in small table groups or individually**
 * Miss Kerry will work in a small group for those who want extra**
 * support.**


 * [[file:conventional-protractor.pdf]] (If you don't have a protractor, cut this out)**

3. Watch this video and play the interactive game [] Then work on triangle interactive video questions:

4. Lastly, if you finished everything listed above, you may play one of these games. [] []
