This week in math the 8th graders started there next unit on Graphs and Functions. We are skipping ahead from unit 1 to unit 5 to start working with linear equations and graphing, which helps give a visual image of what is happening when they actually solve algebra equations. We have been reviewing what a function is and how to identify independent and dependent variables. We also learned about what domain and range are. This week we will review how to identify a function. We have also been reading chapters in the book Secrets, Lies, and Algebra and learned about a pattern 1 5 10 10 5 1. This pattern is a big part of our project fair project on triangles.
