Weekly Objectives

  1. Students can apply their knowledge of operations with polynomials (adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing) and their knowledge of FOIL in order to multiply trinomials.
  2. Students can apply their knowledge of factoring trinomials to begin factoring longer, more complex equations. In doing so, they will learn to pull apart large formulas to examine the parts.

New Assignments (Due 09/21 by 08:00 AM)

  1. Multiplying Binomials & Trinomials (Teams: Assignments)
  2. Factoring Quadrinomials (Teams: Assignments)

Late Assignments (10% off after 09/14 at 08:00 AM)

  1. Polynomials Practice 1 (Teams: Assignments)
  2. Logarithms Quiz (Teams: Assignments)

Below: Here is one example of how you might organize your math work this first week. This is merely a suggestion of one way to pace yourself, and you should do whatever works best for you. No one knows your schedule better than yourself!
