Hello all-

Please remember that the Algebra 1 for Credit midterm is this coming Tuesday, 2/5/19.

For the remainder of the week, we will be introducing our new unit, Exponential Functions, using the movie “Pay It Forward”.  This movie has a powerful message about doing the right thing and a fantastic analogy to Exponential Functions, but it is rated PG-13.  Parent information can be found here: https://parentpreviews.com/movie-reviews/pay-it-forward

If you would prefer your student not be a part of this lesson, an alternative assignment can be given.  Please notify me through email no later than Monday, 2/4/19, so that arrangements can be made.  Thank you!
