Homework for Tuesday, May 29

Assignment: Finding Perimeters
There is no online copy of this assignment.
Find the perimeters of these polygons. Remember that what you see is what it is unless identified otherwise. In other words, if they only list one side of a figure that looks like a square, it is a square. If they show an irregular shape that looks easily divisible into equal parts, assume they are equal parts not random decimals.
This is how Geometry operates. ;-)

Assignment: Test Corrections

Assignment: Mystery Picture - 
- Link to directions! - 
I cannot upload the coordinate grid, but you can create your own on a set of graph paper. Make sure your "0,0" coordinate is in the center of the paper with 14 each direction on the x-axis and 20 each direction on the y-axis.
To read coordinate points, the first number represents the x (positive - right, or negative - left) and the y is the second number (positive - up, or negative - down).
Follow the directions. Connect points with lines and color as instructed.

Homework for Thursday, May 17

Assignment: RPPP Using a Table - Link!
This worksheet does contain more skills besides probability, but here they are mixed together. Keep track of the steps ... they are so similar and connected!
*Probability is part (is) to whole (all), as in if you have 5 red dice and a total of 12 dice, there is a 5:12 probability that I will draw a red die from the pile.
Due Friday
Amelie,  this assignment is a "yes"

Homework for Tuesday, May 15

Assignment: Flower Power - Link!
Use the table and proportions to organize your work.
There are only 7 questions on this page, but three of them are complex!  Take your time, think about them carefully, and don't be afraid when you realize they're not simple.  Work through it until you understand what you are doing.
#5 and #6: These can also be solved as two-step problems.  We went over these in class ... figure out what you know, use your labels, and it's okay if you don't get the answer in one step.
#7: There is no redo option for this question. Both parts, the "yes" or "no" and the "why" or "why not" must be completely explained. I will be picky about your reasoning!
Due Wednesday

Homework for Monday, May 14

Assignment: Taking Chances on the River
*There is NO online copy of this worksheet; please pick up a copy from the classroom
*Make sure you complete the table as directed, then USE it to answer the questions.
*We went over how to read the questions in class, but as a refresher: P = "the probability of," and the parenthesis is the "problem" you are finding the number of outcomes for.
*Remember to write your answers as fractions: 5/36, etc.
(5 would equal the number of times it would happen out of 36 rolls)
Due Tuesday

(Amelie, this assignment is a "no" for you)

Homework for Wednesday, May 9

Hello beautiful people! Let me begin by saying I left ALL of the data at school from our dice rolls today. If you would like to see the data, please send me an email and I will go get it sooner rather than later. But maybe you remember enough about our rolls or you have your own theories or done some research. In any case, it's not about guessing "right," it's about having a theory at all. Think of this as the follow-up to opening our M&M bag and making an educated guess ...
We WILL talk about this tomorrow. ;-)
For tonight -
Assignment: Your Strategy 
Write out what you believe is the best strategy for playing the dice rolling game we played today. Keep in mind that theory and actual results are two different things ... for a reason. So, how do you place your beans and why?
Remember to pencil sketch in an X where you will be placing your beans during class. Note that if you do not HAVE the grid I gave you, write down exactly where you place your 20 beans.
Then we'll see how the dice roll!
*Anyone without completed homework will be disqualified from tomorrow's game.
Due Thursday

Homework for Tuesday, May 8

Assignments in your folder:
1) Reflections on a Life - Link!
The primary thing I want to stress to you here is to WRITE A LOT. 
Be specific, let me know what you are thinking.  Work to make connections between the life you were forced to "live" with the life you hope to live.  Ask a parent if you are stuck; these connections are what make this unit worth living. 
*Reflections may be typed or handwritten. 

2) Budget Guidelines part 2
On your yellow sheet, make sure to begin subtracting your purchases from your NMI.  When you get to savings & charity you should know how much you have left to spend; this is a good time to complete that worksheet as well. 
All of your money must be allocated somewhere, not just hanging out in your pockets.  Make sure your final total is "0" indicating that you know where all your money has been spent or saved.

3) Checklist and Mo's Grading sheet: Link!
This is your checklist of assignments, but it's also where I will list your scores for each of the assignments.  Once folders are handed in on May 15, there will be no more redoing of assignments, so be sure you are happy with your work.  ;-)

Pay attention to the vocabulary! Fixed costs, variable costs, etc. Some of the information you need is on page 21, so do read it.
Revenue is the money you earn (#1). Later (#4) they refer to it as income, but the formula they give you to use still calls it revenue. That is how you figure out your profit in each scenario.
