Algebra 2 - 8/29/11

Wow, what a great first week! Thank you all for your wonderful energy. We'll finish up our review this week and move on into the first unit of new material - really getting the hang of linear equations. Note that there is no school next Monday (Labor Day) so the classes will be moving at slightly different paces. Just a reminder that the dates shown below are the dates that the work is assigned - it's due the following day unless otherwise specified. See you in class,
Mr. Alei

Important Note: Friday marks the end of "Unit 0" and as such, any homework assignments that you have not completed need to be submitted by then to get credit!
