Math Week 2-4-19

7th UChicago: We continue a unit on integers-- positive and negative numbers (and zero). We will look at practice with absolute value and then start adding integers this week. 

7th Loyola: We continue with defining functions and using linear functions to solve tasks. We also look at what makes a function linear.

8th DePaul: We will be looking at how functions can be modeled with input/output machines and what makes a relationship a function. We will also start telling the stories of function relationships.


8th UIC: We will focus on writing equation and inequalities from word problems. 

Homework for week 2-4-19

Hi all! Due to the Polar Vortex, I know that internet connectivity has been hit or miss for some folks. So, I am making the Khan homework that was due on 2-1-19 now due on next Friday, 2-8-19. I made the changes in Khan and in Google Classroom.
