We are designing a new configuration for the Osborne parking lot. You need to research information on size of a parking sapce, space between rows, turn around space, diagonal parking spaces vs. straight on parking spaces, the number of spaces we need for our size school, cost of parking lots, plants, and anything else you can think of. Next week we will be making models of the different configurations. On Friday at the Sympartium, we will let the other students vote.
Here is the When You See Powerpoint Download CalcWhenYouSee_Rev_5-07. Enjoy!
We have three full weeks until AP Testing starts. Let's make the most of it. You will be working through three AP exams in the next three weeks, earning your ticket to a 5. Let's make some magic!
This week we will finish up volumes of revolution and finding areas using integration. Our test is on Wednesday. I need everyone to give me your all this week.
Journal Question...due at the end of the day on Monday...What should be on this test?
Classwork...Practice Test Monday and Tuesday. Thursday you will have a fun math review packet to do.
Friday is FIELD DAY!!
Thanks to all my juniors who took the graduation test seriously, and even used some calculus on it. This week we need to get your applications for Georgia Tech done.
This week we are doing our last section, Volume of Solids, 7.3. Since the GHSGT is this week (good luck juniors) we will not have a quiz on Friday. However, your classwork will still be due on Friday.
Classwork p. 406 1,3,7,9,11,15,21,23,25,29-32,39,43,53
Journal Questions
How do you find the volume of a solid by the method of slicing?
What are the two cross-section shapes for a solid of revolution?
Derive the formula for the volume of a sphere. Compare this to the one you learned in geometry.
The Black History Celebration was incredible. All of you who were in it...Breyon, Krystal, Karen, Olivia, Percy, Ahsley, and Ebony, you all were great.
This week we will be studying motion using integrals. Remember way back at the beginning of the year when we took the derivative of position and found velocity? And then we took the derivative of velocity and found acceleration? Well, now that we can integrate, we can go backwards. We can find the final position of a particle. We can figure out how far a particle has traveled.
Monday is the test.
Tuesday starts the new unit. Your work for this week is:
p. 386 1-9 odd, 11,12-16,17,19,21,23,29,31-36.
Your journal questions:
What is the general strategy for modeling integrals?
What is the integral a natural tool for modeling the consumption of a product?
This week I will be here after school on Thursday.
We need to start thinking about getting those 600's on the math part of the SAT for Georgia Tech next year. I know a lot of you are in the Project 2400 class, which is great. When you have spare time in class, let's start getting on the College Board website and practicing those SAT's. Also, I have a few boxes of the SAT flash cards for you to use. I will get some more. Maybe you can check them out over night on a light homework night. Let's get to work!
Due to the Black History Month program on Friday, we will postpone our test until Monday. Friday will be a catch-up day in 3rd and 4th blocks. 2nd block will be attending the program.
This week we are reviewing chapter 6 in preparation for our unit test on Friday. Chapter 6 is on Differential Equations and Mathematical Modeling. For the test you need to be able to:
On Monday and Tuesday we will do a review worksheet. Download Chapter 6 Review Scavenger Hunt . On Wednesday we will do a practice test. Thursday we will go over the practice test. Friday we will take the test.
This week we will study 6.4, Exponential Growth and Decay. You may ask why we are skipping 6.3, which is Antidifferentiation by Parts. That is a BC topic, and we will only be covering that in the first block class.
In this chapter you will learn about:
As you can see, this chapter has a lot of real world applications, which you know are my favorite things.
You classwork this week will be: p. 357 1-13 odd, 15-19, 21,23,25,27,29,31,45,41-52.
Your journal questions this week are:
How do you solve a separable differential equation?
Describe two applications of differential equations and show one example of each.
