Week of March 9:

Tuesday, March 10, 2020

Monday, March 9: We spent today practicing our skills of dealing with similar triangles when they are overlapping with one another. Again, the best approach is just to redraw and relabel them separately, then compare corresponding parts.

Tuesday, March 10: Today was all about practicing our skills with overlapping triangles as we had one more entry ticket and then a practice worksheet with five problems. The worksheet will be collected at the beginning the hour tomorrow.

Wednesday, March 11: We continued practicing our skills with similar figures today by breaking into small groups. Each group worked on some practice problems to better prepare for Monday.

Thursday, March 12: We got our review for Monday’s assessment today, and students had the hour to work their way through the problems. Moylan was available to discuss/explain anything students were struggling with from the review or earlier assignments.

All classes: Check your answers using the above key. The “Unit Review” assignment on EnVision can be used as additional practice, but is not required. Technical difficulties mean that it cannot be used to check the hard copy of the review but similar problems to the packet can be found and practiced.

Friday, March 13: Schools are closed until Monday, April 13. However, starting next week, begin checking EnVision each day for current assignments.

Today is the last day to turn in any EnVision assignments for this unit! Make sure that they are all “submitted” by 3:00 today!

The Similarity Unit Assessment is currently postponed until the Friday after we return from break, 04/17! Extra practice assignments for similarity will be assigned on Khan Academy each week. If you are struggling with logging in to EnVision, please check the reference document on the Class Info page of the blog!
