Home Nugget #19

Assigned on Monday December 1, 2008

Due on Tuesday December 2, 2008

All problems from sheet titled "Cold Summative Assessment"

Show all work/evidence on a separate sheet of paper such that tomorrow we can exchange papers in class and grade 5 random questions as a quiz grade. This lesson will be graded as a 50 point quiz.

The lesson draws on content stretching back to Chapter 1 and extends through Chapter 2. The goal here is to remind students that they are responsible for all content covered this year and it is misleading to wait until the mid or end of the year before we assess content.
