Honors Algebra 1
Mr. Wells
Day One: September 6th Objective: Discuss the syllabus and classroom
procedures. THEN Interpret points and continuous graphs, understanding that a point conveys two pieces of information and that a continuous graph conveys trends.
• Introduction: Books, syllabus, homework sheet• 1-1 to 1-2 (pgs 3 & 5, RscrcPg)• Conclusion
Homework: Fill out information sheet, last page of syllabus, extra credit tissues OR hand sanitizer, and 1-3 to 1-6 (pgs 6-7)

• My Webpage on the HHS website– Classwork and Homework Assignments– Worksheets– Extra Resources
Getting To Know You, Part 1
1. Find the other students who have the missing pieces of your graph. Every graph will have sections 1, 2, 3, and 4.
2. Locate a group of desks to sit in (Not permanent).3. Choose a scenario for your graph from the list below.
Make sure to discuss how the graph fits the scenario.
1. A Runner in a timed race2. Temperature changing over time3. Babysitting earnings over time
4. Label the x- and label the x- and y-axes. (For example you can use labels such as time, distance, height, years, months, minutes, water level, meters, yards, seconds, number of people, distance from the ground, volume, etc.)
Getting To Know You, Part 2
Area and Perimeter
Perimeter: The distance around the edge of a figure
Area: The number of square units the figure covers
40 units
75 square units
Day Two: September 7th
Objective: Practice using the Cartesian coordinate system by labeling and reading points. Also, begin to identify linear patterns.

How to Plot or Name a point
A coordinate point describes a position on the Cartesian Plane. A point is always listed as:
( x , y )
The first number tells how far left (-) or right (+)
The second number tells far down (-) or up (+)
Alphabetical
Example: Plot (-4,3)
4 left since it is negative
3 up since it is positive
Day Three: September 9th Objective: Introduce X-Y tables and scatter plots as tools
for organizing data and making predictions. Also the scaling of axes of a graph and the concept of dependent and independent measures. THEN How to extend a tile pattern and how to generalize the geometric description of the pattern.

1-50: Bull’s-Eye
Guess:
# of Bulls-eyes
# of Outer-Ring Shots
Total Points Check: (?=160)
10 50 – 10 = 40 7(10) + 2 (40) = 150 Too low
15 50 – 15 = 35 7(15) + 2(35) = 175 Too high
12 50 – 12 = 38 7(12) + 2(38) = 160 Yes, sir!
Jamie hit 12 bulls-eyes and 38 outer-ring shots!

What is wrong with the Graph?
The graph needs to have numeric labels on the
axes. We can not determine a coordinate
without them.
Does the graph stop or go on forever? If it stops,
there should be closed dots, if it continues there
should be arrows.
The graph needs to have variable labels on the
axes. We can not determine a coordinate
without them.

Day 31: October 20th
Objective: Assess Chapters 4-5 in an individual setting. THEN Study more complex applications of the Elimination Method. Learn that multiplying both sides of an equation by a number creates an equivalent equation. Also, there are different approaches to setting up elimination that yield the same result.

Solve the following system of equation:
The Elimination Method is similar to adding/subtracting fractions, except that you
want opposites. The goal is to multiply equations, if needed, so the coefficients (the
number before a variable) for one of the variables is opposite of the other.
