We began with this astounding opener (pdf). Here's the column the opener referenced about texting while driving if you're interested.

We then had a ball learning more about slope (lesson, pdf).

Your homework for Wednesday is:

1. Watch the slope video. Make sure you complete all parts, including the self-check problems. This is a critical concept in Algebra - make sure you go through this video carefully.
   
   



2. You might consider doing a few of these problems at Cool Math for practice. Do as few - or as many - as you think you need to make sure you understand how to calculate slope from two points on a line.
