Wrap up
Lesson 1
Unit 2 Test is Monday 9/29
Entry Tickets vs. Tests
Entry tickets (Formative Assessments) are given after studying a learning target. They provide feedback and help you know if your learning strategies are working. They are an opportunity to know where you are before you take a test. Entry tickets get replaced by tests. They do not stay in the gradebook.
Test results (Summative Assessments) replace your entry ticket scores.
* One of the most valuable things you can do before Friday's test is to look at PowerSchool's Unit 2 Formative Assessment scores. For those Unit 2 Scores < 3, spend extra time reviewing the notes, CYUQs, etc.
Distance: an amount of space between two things
Direction: a course along which someone or something moves
Summarize
Due 9/29
Today you will receive the graphic organizer:
Complete each box by adding notes, examples, and annotations (notes that explain what is happening in your examples). Refer to your notes, CYUqs, entry tickets, vertical collaboration, Google Search, etc. Work together. Help each other.
You may use the notes you make on this graphic organizer during the test (nothing else).
Lesson 2
Test moved from tomorrow to Monday
Somewhere on the graphic organizer, be sure to add the inequality symbols and words:
< less than
> greater than
Also, add a double number line example. I think it will be helpful!
Knowledge Application
Due 9/30
Today, you will design your own amusement park.
Most of your work will be done on a coordinate grid.
Lesson 3
Prepare
Due 9/26
Take out your notebook and something to write with. One person, per pair of students needs a laptop. Click the link below.
Use your own notebook to show your thinking and to do your work. Work together.
C If you get stuck, use your graphic organizer.
When finished, review your thinking and correct any mistakes you made.
If you haven't finished your Unit 2 Graphic Organizer, work on that today! You want to be able to read and review it a few times this weekend (to prepare for Monday's test).
Continue working on Steps 4 and 5 of your "Welcome to My Theme Park" Project.
* I changed the directions for these steps. Please open the assignment in Google Classroom > Classwork to see the changes. Also, review my example to see how I did it for my project.

If you would like, you may use your graphic organizer. No phones, smart watches, or other electronic devices.

After reviewing your tests, I see that EVERYONE has been working hard and doing their best. The time you are spending thinking and working together is paying off. I am proud of YOU.
Test Corrections
Due 10/2
The most important part of the test happens right now: reviewing your work and learning from mistakes.
1. Find someone whose correctly answered a question you missed. Discuss. Ask questions. Think. Don't copy.
2. On your corrections worksheet, neatly rewrite the problem, show your thinking, and circle the correct answer.
3. Before moving to the next problem, write down your mistake and what you will do to not make that mistake again.
The essential standards for Unit 2 are Targets 3 and 5.
Data for T3 came from questions 8 and 9 on the Pear Assessment (computer test) and the 4 question pencil and paper test.
Data for T5 came from questions 13 and 14 on the Pear Assessment (computer test) and the 4 question pencil and paper test.
Check PowerSchool to see the proficiency level your work demonstrated.
