linear equations.
A.REI.10
Understand that
the graph of an
equation in two
variables is the set
of all its solutions
plotted in the
coordinate plane,
often forming a
curve (which could
be a line).

Students were
given a study guide
on Friday which
they worked on in
class and prepared
any questions they
may have for an
additional day of
review on Monday.
Today we are going
to focus mainly
targets that
students need extra
assistance with. All
learning targets will
be posted on the
smartboard and
students will create
a checklist on ones
they feel confident,
comfortable, or
needing assistance
with. This period
will be a whole
review day for their
assessment
tomorrow.
Students are to
complete their
post-assessment
over Chapter 3.
Once all students
have completed the
assessment, we will
discuss any of the
examples they were
concerned about. If
time permits that
they have 30
minutes or more
remaining in the
period, we will
begin their preassessment for
Chapter 4.
Students will begin
the pre-assessment
if time did not
permit at the end of
the previous day.
