Extra Credit!!!!!

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday, and will have a great new year! Here is the assignment I spoke about in class last friday. Remember....they are due in class on the Monday we get back. No exceptions!!


Extra Credit Opportunity for Mr. Golden During Winter Break

Final exams are quickly approaching! Are you ready? Final exams for first semester will cover chapters 1-6 for Alg2/trig, (1-5, and most of 6 for Pre-Calc) which is everything we have covered this year. This is A LOT of information, so studying earlier and frequently will help you be better prepared. I will give you extra credit for completing some of this studying over break. Here’s how:

Choose a chapter we have studied, and using your notes, examples, book, and homework assignments, create a pamphlet ( a paper folded into 3 parts-think of a travel brochure) of important information from that chapter. Pretend as if you are tutoring someone in that chapter. You want to include formulas, examples of different types of problems, and important steps in solving problems. You should also make it look appealing as well. (Use colors, pictures, diagrams, etc….)

You may do as many of the first six chapters as you want, each worth 3 extra credit points. That is a total of 18 possible extra credit points. I will split the points evenly between your quiz, test, and homework grades. For example, if you do three chapters, you would earn 9 points: 3 to test, 3 to quiz, and 3 to homework. Any questions over break, feel free to email me at eagolden@cps.edu Have fun and be safe!!!!

Spring Break Extra Credit

Hello everyone......I hope you all have a wonderful spring break. I am offering 5 points to go towards your HW grade if you complete the following.....

Trig:

Make a tissue box with formulas and or math problems you might encounter on the ACT. It is your job to prove to me you did not do this the morning we get back from break. The more creative the better. I am sure you seen some examples on my desk all year, now it's your turn.

I do not need you to buy the most expensive type of tissues.....but please.....no sandpaper!!!

Geo: here is the assignment Ms. Strand gave out in class.

Geometry Extra Credit for Spring Break: Mathematician “Baseball” Card

You can earn up to 5 extra credit points toward your homework score by completing the following project over Spring Break. Do some research on a mathematician you have heard mentioned and about whom you would like to know more. Similar to what you would find on a baseball card about your favorite player, create a card identifying this mathematician. Some things you may want to include:

  • Front – name, picture, what he/she is famous for (ex. Euclid – “Father of Geometry”)
  • Back – biographical information (ex. when and where did they live, what did they study), important mathematical findings

Your projects will be assessed based on creativity, effort, and a demonstration of your learning. I expect that these will be completed over break, so the quality of your work should reflect this. Again, this is a time to be creative in how you think about math, so have fun and enjoy your break!

Snow update.....

Hey everyone....I've been getting a few emails asking about homework and quizzes for Friday.

Do not worry.....I will be very nice. All I ask is that you have Monday's homework complete in school tomorrow. And Trig: be ready for the memorization quiz, but not a quiz on 6.2.

Hope everyone has stayed warm! See you tomorrow!
