WRITING
Think of two people from different generations. Write a fictional narrative
in which they interact in some way. Be sure to include details about the
setting. Use characterization and dialogue to bring your characters to
life. Print out from computer using Arial 12 font.
ORAL
Read the following text aloud for your teacher. Read with speed,
accuracy, expression, and intonation.
You can understand Mendel´s results by tracing the inheritance of alleles
in his experiments. The purebred plants in the P generation had two
identical alleles for stem height. The purebred tall plants had two alleles
for tall stems. The purebred short plants had two alleles for short stems.
In the F1 generation, all of the plants received one allele for tall stems
from the tall parent. They received one allele for short stems from the
short parent. The F1 plants are called hybrids because they have two
different alleles for the trait. All of theF1 plants are tall because the
dominant allele for tall stems masks the recessive allele for short stems.
When Mendel crossed the hybrid plants in the F1 generation, some of
the plants inherited two dominant alleles for tall stems. These plants
were tall. Other plants inherited one dominant allele for tall stems and
one recessive allele for short stems. These plants were also tall. Other

Theme purposes
To know how to factor using: a) G.C.F, b) grouping method, c)
foil method in cases of x2+bx+c, d)foil method in cases of
ax2+bx+c, e)special products (perfect square or difference of
squares), f)choose a factoring method
Students are going to solve quadratic equations, using different
methods of factorization, and leaving the answer in simplified
radicals if necessary.
To know how to calculate the length of one of the sides of a right
triangle, using the Pythagorean theorem, and leave the answer
in simplified radical when needed.
To analyze the properties of rotation and translation in figures,
as well as the characteristics of angle bisectors. And to know the
symmetry of objects.
To explore connections between random samples, convenience
samples, and probability and learn how these ideas can help to
make fair decisions.
