Tutoring: Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning. Feel free to see me for other possible days this week, yet my schedule is busier than usual Wednesday, Thursday and Friday afternoons.
Assessments: Quiz on Wednesday and Summative assessment next week
Monday
Hope you had a great weekend! Today, we are working on some polynomial cards outside the classroom with varying questions on roots and factors. Yes, you will think on this activity.
I have two colors posted, so ask me which color is the best fit for you today. Also, you find roots of 4th degree polynomials and missing terms polynomials.

HW; None
Tuesday
Today, we look at the Rational Root Theorem and find all roots of a given polynomial. I will have practice time for you today to master this concept and you will have choices on the problems.
HW; Study for quiz

Wednesday
Moving along the week, you shall shine on the formative assessment (a quiz) in class today. I will have a quiz preview first to ensure you are ready this quiz. Also, we analyze the long division process to see a connection with the polynomial, the radical and the factors.

Thursday
Almost Friday! It is the day to write the equation of a polynomial given the roots and to solve a couple of circle problems ( I created these problems, so I love them)
