Bellwork today was a Lateral Thinking question.  These questions ask the students to think “outside-the-box” and ask yes/no questions to help them figure out the situation.  It is good practice for thinking, reading, listening, and asking.

The remainder of the period we began our discussion on Sec 6-4, Point-Slope Form for the equation of a line.

Hwk #20 will be due next week (date TBD):  Pages 307-308, Problems 11-14, 21, 22, 37, 38, 40 (for #’s 21, 22, 40 write equation in Point-Slope Form only)
