November 29 - December 3, 2021

Below is the Math AGENDA for the week of Monday November 29 - Friday December 3 for my Grade 8 & 9 Math classes:

Grade 8

Monday November 29 - Hi everyone, today we are starting Chapter 11 on Probability. Moreover, we will be defining some key terms needed to better communicate in this unit. Also, we will be applying the formula for calculating probability and using a tree-diagram as our strategy. 

Today's activity is on Pg 416 (#1-4)

Tuesday November 30 - Hey everyone, today we are looking at organizing our sample space with a TABLE. We will also look at calculating the Probability from the table. Moreover, we will discuss what are the benefits of using tree diagram and a table.

Please refer to the section 11.1 NOTES in the gr. 8 notes tab on my Blog for details. 

Today's activity is on Pg 417 (#5-12)

Wednesday December 1 - Hey everyone, today we are starting section 11.2, and we'll be using class time today in exploring outcomes of the independent events. 

Please refer to the section 11.2 NOTES in the gr. 8 notes tab on my Blog for details. 

Today's activity is on Pg 419 (#1-6)

Thursday December 2 - Hey guys, today we started section 11.2 and looked at a third strategy when finding the number of possible outcomes. We learned that we can multiply the number of outcomes per independent event to find out the total number of possible outcomes. 

Please refer to the section 11.2 NOTES in the gr. 8 notes tab on my Blog for details. 

Today's activity is on Pg 423 (#1-6)

Friday December 3 Hi everyone, today w wrapped up section 11.2 and looked at:

Finding the total number of outcomes from 3 or more events, please refer to the two examples in your notes. 

Please refer to the section 11.2 NOTES in the gr. 8 notes tab on my Blog for details. 

Today's activity is on Pg 424 (#7-14); as a bonus try #15 & 16

**A reminder that your Chapter 11 QUIZ (on sections 11.1 & 11.2) is on Monday December 6!

Have a nice weekend everyone!! 😊


Grade 9

Monday November 29 -  Hey everyone, today we are starting Chapter 7 (Multiplying and Dividing Polynomials). We created a formula sheet where we developed all of the area and volume formula's needed for this unit. 

Please refer to the section 7.1 NOTES in the gr. 9 notes tab on my Blog for details and for review. 

Today's activity is on Pg 254 (#1 - 6)

Tuesday November 30 - Hey everyone, today we reviewed last day's work with the circle inscribed in a square and its RATIO. Moreover, we learned two strategies when multiplying a monomial. We used an algebraic method and algebra tiles. The concept is quite simple: multiple the coefficients and multiply the variables. 

Please refer to the section 7.1 NOTES in the gr. 9 notes tab on my Blog for details and for review. 

Today's activity is on Pg 259 (#1, 3-8)

Wednesday December 1 - Hey guys, today we looked at dividing a monomial with a monomial. We looked at using 2 methods. One being algebra, and the other using algebra tiles. The idea is simple: When dividing monomials, divide the coefficients and then divide the variables. Furthermore, we applied monomial division through a problem. 

Please refer to the section 7.1 NOTES in the gr. 9 notes tab on my Blog for details and for review. 

Today's activity is on Pg 260 (#2, 9-14)

Thursday December 2 - Hey everyone, today we are using class time as a work-period to wrap up section 7.1. 

Today's activity is on Pg 261 (#15 - 23)

 Friday December 3 - Hey everyone, today we are starting section 7.2 and we'll be looking at multiplying a monomial with a polynomial. The 2 strategies that we will be learning include using an area model and algebra tiles. 

Please refer to the section 7.2 NOTES in the gr. 9 notes tab on my Blog for details and for review. 

**Also, the student notes are available for you to view or print under the grade 9 notes tab

Today's activity is on Pg 268 (#1, 4-9)

Have a nice weekend everyone!! 😊
