Your first day in my class and I look forward to meeting you. The focus of class will be informational on the course, how to be successful and to ensure you are in the correct course.
HW: Supplies needed for my class
Wednesday
Today, we are ready to review quadratics from the Geometry course. If you do not remember some topics, no worries as I will teach all topics to depth. Focus today is how to multiply binomials and factor a = one trinomials.
Help:http://www.algebrahelp.com/lessons/simplifying/foilmethod/
HW: Study the FOIL Method, you must know it for my class!
Thursday
Today, we are focused on factoring trinomials ( a equals and not equal to one).
