Homework Due Monday Mar 14
Make sure to post comments for each assignment:
a) when you start working
b) the sum numbers for which you have doubts or questions
c) when you finish an assignment
Do this for everything - if I see you making an effort and the work ends up taking a realllllly long time I might excuse you from finishing it all. If I don't see comments about start/end/sum doubts... then I can't help you out.
1) Fill out the "What I've Done" and "What I will do" (for this past week and next week respectively) and email me by SUNDAY NIGHT. DO NOT FORGET *grrrrrrrr*
2) Read the sections given below about how to use a GDC.
This is good practice for you to learn how to read an instruction manual and figure out how to use a gadget. All common devices come with instruction manuals so consider this assignment to be preparation for figuring out how to use a new gaming system or fancy phone you buy in the future.
Work through the examples in the book on your calculator so you become comfortable using the GDC.
Red Book:
p. 8 - 18
1.2.7 (p. 23 - 25)
1.4 (p. 27-33 End when you get to "Graphs of Exponential Functions")
3) Take one page of notes over the GDC material.
Your notes should capture the main points of how to use the GDC and should help you remember steps for performing certain operations on the calculator. Don't copy sentences verbatim (word-for-word) from the text or write down obvious things. Write only things that you think would be helpful to you in remembering how to use your GDC on a quiz or on homework
4) Read the section on quadratic functions.
It may not all make sense to you, but put your best attention and efforts into understanding the material. This is an exercise to challenge you to read on your own and make sense of new information.
p. 184-192
5) Take two pages of notes over the "Quadratic Functions" material.
Your notes should capture the main points about quadratic functions. Try doing the examples given by yourself and then seeing the given solutions. Show this work in your notes. Also write any questions you have about the material.
6) Sums p.192 1-3 (all parts)
a) when you start working
b) the sum numbers for which you have doubts or questions
c) when you finish an assignment

Homework Due Wednesday Mar 9
Complete all tasks below by tomorrow lunch or you'll need to stay after school from 4-5 pm to work on the assignments. Sparsh/Himanshu, be sure to make comments about your assigned sums. Komal/Aastha - I haven't seen any comments from you saying that you've started working.
1) Subscribe as a follower on the blog. As soon as you've subscribed, make a comment on this post so that I know when you've subscribed (ex. "I've subscribed" "I worship the maths blog" etc.)
No excuses will be accepted - if you can't figure out how to subscribe, ask your friends or email me.
2) Complete all homework which was due on Friday. Every single sum. It must be completed in full.
Exercise 4.1 (All sums) p. 175 Red Book
Exercise 4.2 (All sums) p. 182-183 Red Book
3) As you begin to work on Friday's assignment, write a comment on this post saying that you've now started the assignment.
This will be a "time-stamp" that let's me, your parents, Dr. Kiran etc. know exactly what time you started the assignment.
4) As you're working on Friday's assignment, you need to make a minimum of one comment on this post letting me know which sums you're having difficulty with
You should comment about ALL sums which you don't understand - if you don't tell me that you don't understand certain sums, then you'll be expected to have completed them fully and to have solved them correctly. If you're able to solve all the sums, then you need to comment "I know how to solve all sums"
4) As you're working on Friday's assignment, you need to make a minimum of one comment about how to solve the sum you're assigned (below).
Write some advice to your classmates (a sentence or two) on how to solve the assigned sum. Don't give the answer but explain the basic process for solving the sum. For example, if i were assigned #5 p. 175, I could write "To find f(-2), f(0) and f(2) simply plug in -2, 0, 2 into each equation. Take care with f(0) for part d."
Aastha - #4 p. 184
Himanshu - #4 p. 175
Komal - #3 p. 175
Sarang - #8a p. 183
Sparsh - #8c p. 183
5) When you've finished Friday's assignment, comment on the post "I've finished Friday's assignment".
The point of all these posts is to let me know when you've worked on the assignments and that you've made an honest attempt at them. I won't believe your excuses of not having time unless you show me that you've planned ahead and at least tried your best to work on the sums.

Homework Due Friday Mar 4
1) Go through all the past posts on the blog and do the sums you haven't done yet. A lot of you guys haven't been keeping up with the sums so here's your chance to finish them. By now, since we've worked on the topics in class, you should be able to do the sums for sure. So do em :)!!!
2) I've assigned this before but review the chapter again and read it closely in detail so we can go over it in class on Friday. Even if all of it doesn't make sense to you, make a good effort to understand and come to class prepared with questions on Friday.
Read p. 170 - 182 in the Red Book and take any notes you think will be helpful. Make sure to read closely and take good notes because the quiz on Friday will cover the topics in this chapter! Remember that you can use your notes on the quiz.
3) Exercise 4.1 (All sums) p. 175 Red Book
4) Exercise 4.2 (All sums) p. 182-183 Red Book
