STUDENT MID-TERM EXAM REVIEW QUESTIONS Please choose a problem or problems for your classmates to solve and discuss on a math topic we have covered so far this year. You have the last five to seven minutes of the class to: 1. Write on the board the general math concept you picked to review and tell us why you chose this topic. 2. Write on the board the problem(s) you have chosen to solve that will best explain your topic. 3. Allow your classmates a minute or two to solve the problem(s). 4. Solve the problem on the board and tell us a little more about what you think is important about the math concept you chose to review. If you need any help choosing a math concept or need help finding problems, please let me know. I have lots of problems! (: SCHEDULE

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& Text - Prentice Hall Mathematics: Algebra Readiness ALL-IN-ONE Student Workbook Version A. 2010 As we discussed Friday – we will go over every Lesson in your workbook. We began on Friday with Lesson 1-1. I will teach you each concept in each lesson and will not move on until I am sure all of the students understand each concept presented. I will define each and every vocabulary word. You will not be responsible for finding the definitions of a vocabulary word. Last week we discussed that algebraic equations can have more than one variable and that equations with more than one variable can be solved. I told you that at this point however, that you will not be asked to solve an algebraic equation with more than one variable unless I give you a numeric value for all of the variables but one. (:
