This is a reminder of the first unit to remind myself, and possibly help me study for the exam. Maybe it'll help you to.
Our first unit was about solving systems of linear equations. We moved into learning about how we can solve them and different ways to find answers. Going over the substitution method, and then the addition subtraction method, I think i had a decent handle on both of them. Being a former precalc kid, it came kindof easily... it was the calculator, and the computer that i had to get used to.(As wierd as that sounds.)
Learning about the different types of systems (consistant, inconsistant, and dependent) was ok, after some repetition it was easy to remember. Accelerated math is helping me stay on track, last year I was way behind in almost everything, hense the fact i almost failed...
I have a handle on this unit, and i did pretty well on the test. The word problem quiz scared me because I wasn't very confident in what i was doing, at all.. but after the quiz was finished I feel better about those kinds of questions. (it wouldn't hurt to keep those notes close by for the exam though.)
So far, i feel pretty good, and i think ill be ok when it comes to the exam. At least if i need help studying, ill always have the blog to look back on.

Today Mr. Max wasn't going to be here for the class, so he just came and told us to do Accelerated Math for the whole class and to dismiss ourselves at 12:00.

Oct. 1/08 system word problems
Today we got our test back from Mr. Maks. Personally I think I did not to bad, but I could have done better. Mr. Maks. said that our class average was 59% which he said was a descent class average. After we all got our tests back, we moved on to some word problems.
This word problem was not to bad, but I think I got the same answer that Mr. Maks. did a different way. I would share that way with you guys but I forgot my binder at home and it had all my work in it. If anyone would like to see how I answered this question feel free to ask me tomorrow, and hopefuly I remember how I did it.
This question I thought to be a little more confusing but as Mr. Maks went along I started to pick up on it on my own. I'll still probably need some help on it when I get to this question or one like it.
For the rest of the class it was just a work period to catch up on accelerated math.

Well on monday there were only four of us not interested in post-secondary day so first Mr Maksymchuk showed us where he saved everything and then it was just a work period from there on.
On Tuesday we did some word problems from the accelerated math and had a very compelling discussion on cell phone and Ipod use in different schools.

Today, since Mr.Maksymchuk isn't here, we worked on Accelerated Math for the whole block. There is a quiz on those joke sheet things soon, so yeah. I hope I did good on that test.

Sept 25, Thursday
Today, we wrote our test, and I hope everybody did alright, (and hopefully all your pictures came out great)
P.S.
Make sure you have 15 mastered objectives done by 3:40 friday, october 3rd.
Heres an example of the substitution method.

TEST IS TOMORROW!! Today we went through the test review and what would be on the test. Mr. Maksymchuk explained all what would be expected and the rules about tests in room 204.
The network was down so we couldn't transfer the note that Mr.Maksymchuk wrote for us.Thankfully i wrote them down!

Systems Test
Can i solve algebraically
-Substation
-Addition/ Subtraction
Solve with technology
-Calculator
-Graphmatica

Today, In math class we did mental math like we allways do every single day at the begining of every single class. Lucky me, I missed this one because i came in late from getting my hair done, but Mr.Maks made sure everyone knew why I was late... I think he was trying to make a point for something... anyways after all that we finished up what we started yesterday on excel, and continued on our eccelerated math.
***Remember*** test on Thursday
*and* quiz next week on Joke Sheets
september 22 2008
Today we started out with mental math, on question 5 we had to do some thinking but we got some good answers. We started on joke sheets and learning about spread sheets, they are not all that complex. we can also use our graphing calculators or we can solve it algebraically. Lets hope that we get some tips on how to do this in a faster meted. See you all tomorrow.

September 19th Blog Post
Today, we started off the class with Mental Math. Mr. Max told us to hand it in today for him to mark. He gave us a choice to either include our practice mental math in with the rest of it or leave it out.
He told us that today would be a work period to work on Accelerated Math.
Since we didn't do any notes today, i thought i would add an example of the Substitution Method.

Today Mr. Max gave us a bunch of tips and tricks to make accelerated math easier, so here they are:
After he gave us these tips, we worked on mental math.
Sept 18/08
Today in class... Mr.Maks was showing us tips and tricks with questions that we are currently working with, after we all worked on finishing Accelerated Math.

Accelerated Math Sept. 17/08
Alright, today we started off by doing mental math which usually has a lot to do with the lesson we do the day before, so try and pay attention. Then we were shown how to do accelerated math:
I don't think there is to much i can add to that, but if you have any questions don't be shy to ask. There is a test coming up next week, Thursday September 25 to be exact and accelerated math would probably give you some good practise so get er done.

Today, Sept 12th , 2008
Today, We started off with a mental math, # 4. Then Mr. Maksymchuck went around and did a homework check, on the 6 questions that were due for today. then he had noticed that a great amount of people had no clue as to what they were to do. So we as a class went over 5 f. As you can see down below. Today we did not use any source of electronic devices. We showed all of our work and did all of the step together. Then he had reassigned ALL of exercise 5 A-L
So in conclusion, Please try hard and do all of exercise 5
** Remember this is for marks and it might be on a test.**
** Exercise 5 A-L due Monday**
