Honors BM 6 on Block 2.7

The benchmark will be started on this day! We might spend about 20 minutes on Friday finishing it, if necessary.
It is the toughest exam for 2008, so far! Okay, its the only one, but it is tough. There are a lot of formulas and theorems to remember. We will review for the first hour and test the second hour. Your graphic organizer from last Tuesday is an excellent study tool, so use it. Its the one with the pictures of the shapes and their characteristics.
Good luck and happy studying!

Honors Benchmark - Block Day 2.7

Unit 6 Benchmark is on the 7th - block day. Monday will be finishing up Similarity review, with a Benchmark review for homework. You will grade the hw in class Tuesday and learn from your mistakes. You will work on a second BM review in class with peers that will be graded on Block. Then Exam will be the second half of block, or whenever we are ready to go [after questions]. Last note of advice: Study. This semester the course has A LOT more to be memorized. We had about 7 figures to know and their two or three theorems that accompanied them. Its a lot in comparison to last semester, so get studying, get memorizing. Go over previous worksheets and practices. Print out more for the honors site and do them again. It'll be good practice.
