| Hello and welcome to another wonderful year at Pebblebrook High School in Mr. Howard's class where we "BELIEVE YOU CAN".
Below is the list and order of the topics we have covered in my class up to the present day. Students have completed unit 1 and been tested on its contents. We are currently on unit 2 and will begin graphing equations using the slope intercept for starting tomorrow September 9th. From this point forward, I will try to post all PowerPoint and class practice materials used to teach during class. If there is a need for some work that we have already covered please feel free to email me directly so we can make sure you receive whatever information you need. I am looking forward to working with all parents and students this year, lets make it a great one!!

Week 3 Tuesday 8/16/16
Foundations of Algebra & Algebra I
All classes went to the computer lab to complete the first session of the math SMI.
Week 3 Monday 8/15/16
Foundations of Algebra
On Monday students practiced comparing negative and positive decimals as well as learning how to numerically place them in order. Those who did not finish the classwork were assigned the last 11-20 problems for homework.
Algebra I
Students started learning how to write and read the language of Algebra. Students began writing expressions using the terminology that represents mathematical operations as well as solved the expressions. Students had to finish the final two expressions and solve them for homework.
Week 2 8/8-8/12
Foundations of Algebra I
In the second week of school students in the Foundations of Algebra class spent the first couple days working on learning how to determine the absolute value of a number. Students learned that the absolute value of a number is based on the distance a number is away from zero. The second concept students learned was how to convert fractions into decimals and decimals into fractions. Due to a family emergency, a substitute covered my class from Wednesday to Friday and students practiced the content they learned on Monday and Tuesday.
Algebra I
In the second week of school students in the Algebra I class worked on the order of operations and had a brief review of basic fundamentals of math. Due to a family emergency, a substitute covered my class from Wednesday to Friday and students practiced the content they learned on Monday and Tuesday.
