Algebra, Tuesday, 5/18

We completed our third attempt at benchmark 66 -- grades for all this time.

Students saw how the quadratic formula is derived from the process of completing the square. Notes on the three steps: 1. get it in standard form; 2. identify a, b, and c; 3. substitute and simplify.

Tomorrow, in class we will practice using the formula on problems. We have only one more topic to cover in the algebra curriculum. In the meantime, there is NO ASSIGNMENT.
