Alg2- we learned about imaginary numbers today. It went pretty all right. Tomorrow we practice more and I hope that goes well too. Getting farther than I have before. Gotta keep this up.
Alg 1- factoring practice today. Good grief their minds completely reset overnight. We did a journal entry on two different methods of factoring, And then it became horrible. I know how to factor. I've explained it many times before and it's almost as though MY brain was wiped clean. I ended up tutoring hardcore after school and I forced kids into the factor box method. Not my finest moment but when your kids don't know how to do something, is it ok to make them do one certain way, provided you've shown them other ways?
Hope tomorrow is better.
The rest of the day. Eh. Turned into helping kids finish work. Lets call it "assessment on an individual basis" day. Yes.
Catching up on grades, had to do STAAR training and still need to finish updating my lesson planner. I'm good to go on Algebra 1, way behind in alg2, ahead in MMA and falling behind in Geo and today didnt help. Gah. Is there no balance to this mess?
I better jet. Lates.
