Announcements:
  1. Take-Home Exam distributed today:  Due at the beginning of class Monday.   Include ALL work.  
  1. CCSS.9-12.G.SRT.6:  Understand that by similarity, side ratios in right triangles are properties of the angles in the triangle, leading to definitions of trigonometric ratios for acute angles.  
  2. CCSS.9-12.G.SRT.7:  Explain and use the relationship between the sine and cosine of complementary angles.
  3. CCSS.9-12.G.SRT.8: Use trigonometric ratios and the Pythagorean Theorem to solve right triangles in applied problems. 
Big Idea:
  1. Trigonometric functions represent proportionalities in Right Triangles. 
Class Outline:
  1. Attendance. 
  2. Review: Ch.8.SGR; #s 1-6, 8, 11, 15-17, 20-21, 24-27, 30-31
  3. Class Time to begin Take-Home Exam: Section 8.1
  4. Tomorrow will also be class time for the Take-Home Exam.
  1. Begin Take-Home Exam
    1. Students are NOT allowed to communicate with EACH other about the test or receive assistance from any other person face-to-face. However, students may use their textbook or other written or electronic (such as the internet) source as assistance.
    **Chemistry**


    Announcements:  
    1. Quiz TODAY:  Balancing Chemical Equations
    Standards and Benchmarks:
    1. EALR4.9-11.PS2G:  Chemical reactions change the arrangement of atoms in the molecules of substances.  Chemical reactions release or acquire energy from their surroundings and result in the formation of new substances.  
    Big Idea:
    1. Various types of chemical bonds exist based on the electronegativity difference of the bonding atoms.
    2. The type of bonding between elements, in part, determines properties of the compound. 
    Class Outline:
    1. Attendance
    2. Entry Task (None today)
    3. Balancing Chemical Equations Quiz
    Homework:
    1. Read Chapter 4, Section 2.
    ***Biology***
    1. EALR 4.9-11.LS1G:  Cells us the DNA that forms their genes to encode enzymes and her proteins that allow a cell to grow and divide to produce more cells, and to respond to the environment. 
    2. EALR 4.9-11.LS1H:  Genes are carried on chromosomes.  Animal cells contain two copies of each chromosome with genetic information that regulate body structure and functions.  Most cells dived by a processes called mitosis, in which the genetic information is copied so that each new cell contains exact copies of the original chromosomes.  
    Big Idea(s):
    1. Organisms reproduce by passing genetic information to their offspring.
    Class Outline:
    1. Attendance
    2. Entry Task (None Today)
    3. Video:  The Human Genome
    Homework:  
    1. Read Section 24.1
    ****Life Science****
    1. EALR 4.6-8.LS1C:  Multicellular organisms have specialized cells that perform different functions.  These cells join together to form tissues that give organs their structure and enable organs to perform specialized functions within organ systems.
    2. EALR 4.6-8.LS1C:  Describe the components and functions of the digestive, circulatory, and respiratory systems in humans and how these systems interact.  
    Big Idea:
    1. The respiratory system is composed of cells that form various tissues that aid in the breathing process.
    2. The circulatory system is composed of various organs and cells that are responsible for transporting blood and nutrients throughout the body.  
    Class Outline:
    1. Attendance
    2. Entry Task 
    3. Video: Elements of Biology: Ecosystems
      ***Trigonometry***

      Announcements:

      Standards and Benchmarks:
      1. CCSS-GSRT.1
      2. Understand that by similarity, side ratios in right triangles are properties of the angles in the triangle, leading to definitions of trigonometric ratios for acute triangles
          1. CCSS-GSRT.7
            1. Explain and use the relationship between sine and cosine of complementary angles.
          2. CCSS-F-TF
            1. Explain how the unit circle in the coordinate plane enables the extension of trigonometric functions to all real numbers, interpreted as radian measures of angles traversed counterclockwise around the unit circle.  
          Big Idea:
          1. Fundamental math skills are the building blocks upon which trigonometric skills are built.
          Class Outline: 
          1. Attendance
          2. Review: Complete "Are you Ready" #1-22
