Today was a long block day.:( We started with mental math like always then started learning about Trigonometry. The things that I did remember about trig are:

SOH= in order to get sin you divide the opposite side by adjacent side
CAH= in order to get cosine of an angle you divide adjacent by the hypotenus
TOA= in order to get tangent of an angle you divide the opposite side by the adjacent side

Today was a long block. We started out with mental math. I got a very good mark- 70% percent(boo yah!:)) Then we got a free work period. I did a practice with sixty questions on it and mastered 7 more objectives. I'm finally moving at a decent pace and hope to keep it up.

Today was a long block day. We did mental math then did some examples of rationalizing denominators and solving exponential equations. It's pretty confusing! Then he gave us about 25 minutes to continue on accelerated math. I really gotta catch up !!!

Today was a long block day so we started with mental math. Then we did some more notes on radicals and evaluating them and different methods in order to do that. It was very helpful. I'm almost done a practice and an exercise so that should help bring my mark up. After the notes we got to keep working on our accelerated math :D

Today is a short-blocked friday. You didn't teach us anything new so we have a chance to catch up on accelerated math and such. Well I guess i better go do some math. Have a good weekend and good halloween!!!:)

Today was long block so we started with mental math. I did horrible on it. Then we continued on with more rules for exponents and worked with exponents and radicals. The stuff we learned today is much harder than yesterday's, but I'm slowly getting it, little by little. I just have to try and keep up with everything.

Today we skipped mental math because it's short blocks and we have a test to prepare for tomorrow. We worked mostly on slopes and y-intercept form. It's really hard. I have to leave ten minutes early today unfortunately, but I will be back at 4:00 to get some help.
