Factoring Polynomials Review
Lesson Outline
J.Paul and I discussed a future schedule and determined 7:30-9:30am would work best for us both moving forward.
We began the lesson by taking notes on the 5 types of Factoring Polynomials:
1) Greatest Common Factor
2) Trinomials (a=1)
3) Difference of Squares
4) Grouping
5) Trinomials (a>1)
J.Paul had decent recollection, but today's lesson seemed to be of great benefit for review. I explained to J.Paul that although Factoring is an Algebra 1 topic, it resurfaces again in Algebra II, PreCalculus, and Calculus, so having a solid foundation is important.
After notes, we moved to the Smart Board where we practiced a mixed review of factoring. J.Paul asked great questions when he was confused.
For homework, I assigned 10 problems (of mixed styles). We will review it tomorrow.
