Week 2 Distance Learning

Algebra 2 Distance Learning Week 2:

*You may have heard that the district is transitioning away from using Google Meets/Hangouts for our weekly check-in and office hours. We’ll be using something on iLearn Called “Big Blue Button”. I’ve created an iLearn page specifically for this new virtual meeting requirement and have enrolled you all in the course. If you are not automatically enrolled use the code “hwzxed” to enroll yourselves and I will add you to the appropriate class hour. I will continue to post general announcements/updates to our Google Classroom pages, but we will be using iLearn for our weekly virtual check ins/office hours and as a checklist for the assignments that you need to complete each week.

* This week our work will focus around scaling functions (stretching & compressing) vertically and horizontally. There are five videos to view and 4 sets of exercises. Please make sure that you are signed into your Khan Academy account when you complete them. The easiest way to do this is to go to http://www.khanacademy.org, click on “sign in” and then choose “Continue with Google”.

* In addition to the Khan exercises there is an OPTIONAL extension activity utilizing Desmos to determine the transformations occurring to a quadratic function and what function would represent these transformations. You can see more info about this on iLearn. Please remember that this is OPTIONAL.

* If you’re having any difficulties throughout the week, feeling overwhelmed, nervous about things, bored, shoot me a message! We have two options during the week scheduled for office hours and can be semi-flexible about other times in some cases. Waiting until the night before everything is due and then emailing me is not the best way to go about letting me know you’re struggling. Please begin assignments today so that when you check into our Big Blue Button Office Hours on Monday and Tuesday we can address your questions early!

Please let me know if you have any questions/concerns!
