Week of November 19th

Statistics:  Students should have completed page 185, #'s 6-15 and 16-30 even for homework.  Then they will be taking notes on Adding Rules of Probability in class.

Calculus:  Students are currently working on implicit differentiation and derivatives of inverse trig functions.  After Thanksgiving break, students will resume with derivatives of exponential and logrythmic functions.  That will be followed by their chapter 3 test on derivatives.

Practical Geometry:  Students are currently preparing for their Keystone exam on Algebra 1.  All students are encouraged to be using study island.
