We’re going to do this unit a little differently; call it Math 3.0. I’m going to tell you a
list of the things you need to know, and you can decide how you want to learn about
them.
I’ll do lessons (all-class or mini-lessons) as you request them. But it’s up to each of you
to plan how you want to do this unit and how you want your understanding to be
assessed. You pick the number of quizzes, assignments, projects and tests you want for
each chapter/the unit as a whole.
(There will be marks – about 15% – for this unit on the exam; these will be conventional
exam-style questions.)
Polynomial equations are also used to model many real-world situations. The most
common and useful polynomials involve speed – maybe a car braking, and also how fast
something falls from the sky.
Mr. Plett will do introductory lessons to the chapters on the dates listed above. If you
want additional mini-lessons, you can always request them!

You may have a handwritten single-sided “cheat sheet” for the mid-term exam;
you must use the page that Mr. Plett hands out to you. You will have class time to
work on this cheat sheet during the “exam review” classes. It can include
anything you wish. You may not ask Mr. Plett any questions about how to do
things on the exam.
