Assigned on Monday February 27, 2012
Due on Thursday March 2, 2012
Bring textbook to class for the next week at least.
Today in class, we should have put the finishing touches on lesson 7-1 and possibly cracked the lid on lesson 7-2. Over the next two days, Tuesday and Wednesday, I will leave a study guide for you that along with the textbook, will help you both extract the relevant content and focus on certain problem sets.
When I return on Thursday, the remainder of the 3rd term journal will be due and we will grade it as a class. Furthermore, while I can fill in any content gaps you may have, I will expect you to have figured out the main themes of lessons 7-2 and 7-3. I reserve the right to collect any problems assigned over these two days.

Focusing Exclusively on 3rd Term Math Journal Questions
Home Nugget #24
Assigned on Tuesday February 14, 2012
Due Friday February 17, 2012
Tonight is a chance to tune into questions 1 - 4 of the 3rd term math journal. Considering how 'dense' the content has been as of late, mostly because our topics are cumulative in nature, any chance you get to simply pause and look back at themes is a valuable opportunity.
Take this chance to get a 'bird's-eye' of the content and give yourself a chance to make solid, permanent connections that will serve you in the future.

Polishing off the Polynomial Function Puzzle: Learning to Solve Higher Order Polynomials By Generating Our Own Factor Candidates

"Due" on Thursday February 9, 2012
Given the density of the content for the next day or two, it does not make sense to have a conventional home nugget. You won't really have the big picture until Thursday or Friday.
Considering these circumstances, it is best to simply review your class notes nightly so that you walk into class feeling confident and certain about content that will have additional layers added to it in each class investigation.

(we're revisiting problems from Home Nugget #16: these are the six problems I chose to correct when I collected the home nugget originally and the results were pretty scary. I continue to wonder whether we are having a tough time with home nuggets because we aren't taking them seriously enough or whether we are actually running into content issues)
