I'm sorry it's been a couple of days since my last post. Getting back into the routine has been more difficult than I thought. I've had a nasty little flu/cold thing for over a week - my throat felt like I swallowed glass, and just as I think I'm getting over that ... I woke up with PINK EYE! Awesome! I think my body is rebelling against going back to school. Body issues aside, the first few days have gone well. I have a difficult class this year so we've taken it quite slow. Most of our time has been dedicated to discussing character, establishing rules, discussing character, practising routines, and discussing character ... you get the idea. They'll come around ... I hope. I had a GREAT moment today when I asked for some volunteers to help in the JK/SK classroom during lunch time - every single student volunteered! I made a BIG deal about this, gushing about how they filled my bucket with their display of great character and leadership. I also made them all a character rocks card, and filled the bucket with them. I can't wait to hand them out tomorrow! We have accomplished a few academic tasks these past few days. We started our space unit in science. Today we made our KWL chart (one student "wondered" if it was possible to get pulled into a wormhole - lol), and they started on their title pages. I haven't taught this unit for a few years, and our resources are so limited and outdated. I've been doing some internet searching, but if anybody has any great ideas, I'd love to hear them. I started our writing workshop unit - Personal Memoirs. I'm really excited about this unit I made. Yesterday we read Eve Bunting's The Memory String, and we discussed it using a question string (OK - it was more like a chain, but the students got the connection). Today we started to make our personal timelines - we'll have to finish them tomorrow. We also started to make our math journals today - we made our first entry and started decorating the covers. Tomorrow we'll finish decorating them, and add a layer or two of homemade mod podge (equal parts white glue and water) to the cover to make it a little more sturdy. We're going to make foldables for each entry. Today we made a four-corner foldable for operations. They students had a lot of fun with this, and I am VERY excited about our math journals this year (something I've never said before). Here are a couple of pictures from our journals today: So, it's been a LONG three days so far, but there's only one more day to go. Hopefully the antibiotics kick in, and my eye starts to heal. We have Spirit Day tomorrow, and I have to get busy writing a cheer for the class ... Happy Thursday!!!
Do you have a highschooler doing advanced math and Trigonometry at home?Trigonometry, at it's most basic level, is concerned with the measurement of triangles - calculations of unknown lengths and angles. The trigometric functions have a number of practical applications in real life and also help in the solutions of problems in many branches of mathematics.

Mathematics is used to communicate information about a wide range of different subjects...
Today I stayed after school to create some anchor charts my regular 7th grade math classes. We are currently working on 7.EE.A.1 "Apply properties of operations as strategies to add, subtract, factor, and expand linear expressions with rational coefficients." All my math students did ACT Interim testing today so I spent some time designing my anchor charts. I'm a bit compulsive when designing anchor charts and prefer to map out what I want to include on post-it notes and then transfer the information to chart paper. I don't decide on colors until I sit down to write my anchor charts. These three (well really four because I redid the Solving Expressions chart) took me over two hours to complete. Below was the first chart I created. I was definitely not happy with how the examples looked. I should have had space between each line on example 2. Solving Expressions Take One I ended up redoing this chart after I created the charts for Distributing and Factoring. I thought they were so much easier to read and see each example that I went back and and fixed this one up and was much happier with how it turned out the second time. Solving Expressions Much Better! I do not require my students to show the work of how they distribute, but put it on the anchor chart as a guide to remind them they have to distribute to all terms in parentheses. A common misconception is for them to only distribute to the first term. Distributing I love the way this chart turned out and like the combo of blue, red, and purple with the black. Stepping outside my comfort zone of my pink, blue, green color scheme. When students struggle I always refer back to the anchor charts to guide them to solve the problem. Factoring All ready to go on my front board for tomorrow. I'm very happy with the finished products and hope they will be beneficial to my students as they work through this chapter. In the past students have really appreciated having anchor charts to look at and often take photos of them on their phones so they can look at them at home. I still need to make a chart for Combining Like Terms, but my family was waiting for me to get home so we could have dinner so that will have to wait until tomorrow.
