Don't worry!

Hey guys! First of all, thank you for your wonderful messages. They touched my little family very much! Little Noah is doing just fine. He is like a little bird, he needs to sleep and eat a lot and he opens his eyes a little more everyday! I've met with Mr Thompson today (first time I could leave from the house/hospital) and he told me you guys were doing great! He mentioned that Thursday and Friday were a little harder with graphing systems. It's normal! This is a much harder lesson. And you're right in the book because it's more of an algebra lesson. However, we've decided to slow down a bit Monday and Tuesday and to give you more time and help on slope intercept form and graphing inequalities. The worksheet that you got are a little advanced. Take them as a diagnostic worksheet to see what you understand so far and mr Thompson will go in detail over them with you guys tomorrow and Tuesday. Try just to do your best on them. Do not forget that I'm back next week and we'll use this week before spring break to review what was taught and make sure everything was understood. It doesn't mean you should not try hard to understand this more advanced lesson. You'll do much better after anyway. And remember, the more you re stressed, the more I'm stressed and the less likely I am to change my little 5 days old baby without having him cry to much :-) Keep being good! Weirdly, I miss you too!!:-) Mr B.

Baby Bertrand is born!

Noah Lucien Bertrand was born Tuesday afternoon and we love him already so much! I hope you guys are doing good. I know slope is a little hard but I'm sure you'll figure out soon. Keep working hard and being so good! I heard great things about your behavior since Mr Thompson started and it helps me so much to know that you're acting like this. Thanks! I can't wiat for you to meet our little one! Mr. B

Hey guys, jackson and Chris seem confused a bit by the homework. So I'm gladly posting about it. just print out graph paper and graph the functions we already studied. For the 2 others, I'm glad to see Jackson rediscovering square roots! You're right, there is no square roots for negative numbers. You guys should then pick only positive numbers for your chart! Let me know if you need any more help, I'll be glad to help you if I'm not...at the hospital! Take care, PS: here is a link to a website where you can print graph paper for free! Mr B. Mr B.

Simple interest rate

romainbertrand — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 20:54:00 GMT

Good class today guys! I really liked all your questions about this key lesson. Basically, I liked your interest for simple interest :-) We'll finish working on that tomorrow and we'll learn how to make circle graphs. Here are your slides and the homework!

Percent of change

romainbertrand — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 20:15:00 GMT

Here are today's slides. Don't forget I'll be out tomorrow but you'll have a sub. Your warm up will be a review worksheet on Volume and surface area and then the classwork is on percent of change. The 2 worksheets will have to be finished by the end of the class Wednesday and turned in to the sub. I'll check the worksheets Wednesday afternoon when I'll come back from the training. MCB, you'll be in charge to collect those and count them to make sure we'll have them all. It's your Bday after all!!

The blog is back! application of percent

Don't forget to do the homework by following the link at the bottom of the page. If the link doesn't work, just paste it in. Good luck! Mr B.

No study session tomorrow morning!

Hey guys, I totally forgot to tell you I will not be able to do the tutoring tomorrow morning at 7:45. If you can pass along the message, that would be great! See you Mr B.

Unit 7 review

romainbertrand — Thu, 08 Jan 2009 22:13:00 GMT

Hi there! The only homework assignment tonight is to study for the test! I post all the slides even the ones we didn't have time to cover today so you can use them to review. I REFUSE though to write all the formulas! You guys have notebooks and the archives of the blog to find them if you've lost them. However, you can probably count on a classmate to bail you out on this blog. Weirdly enough a lot of you guys manage to think and take notes everyday at the same time : Multitasking is the word today :-) Mr B.

Cross sections

Don't forget the homework pp310 and 311 #6,7,17,18,21 Let me know if you need help on 17, 18 and 21. 17 and 18, you know the volume and you need to find the thickness (or height). Remeber V= Bxh and you know V and area of Base so you should be able to find h (equation anyone?) Now for 21, You want to find the volume of the plastic pipe NOT the interior. Hint: Find the volume of the outer pipe, then the volume of the inner pipe and then... I don't want to tell yo everything! Where is the fun otherwise?:-) Have fun Mr B.

Hi there! Sorry that I've talked 176 times today! I'll try to do better tomorrow (Under 150 would be an improvement already). No homework today. ENjoy!
