  • Monday's class (Nov. 9):

    We practiced vocabulary on conic sections from the ESP book pp. 45-46.  Other terms also came up, such as asymptote, sine and "axes" vs. "axes" (pronunciation).

    HW: 

    • SB p. 102 / Ex. 2. (Make a list on your own and next time we will do the activity in groups.)
    • SB p. 104. Pay particular attention to Ex. 1 and Ex. 2. We will talk about it in class next time
    • Also, please do this super special extra activity, which I didn't mention in class:

    Read the SHORT STORY "The Fun They Had" by Isaac Asimov and be prepared to answer questions about it. (It's short; 1000 words; 2.5 normal pages.)
