At the beginning of the year you were told that you had 2 choices for geometry next year. Analytic Geometry was for students who achieved a 90% grade average (strong B or an A). Those who achieved a grade average between 76 (C-) and 89 (B) were to go to regular Geometry.
For a variety of reasons the math department has decided to put all the geometry students in the same class, a course named Geometry and Trig. Students who pass either Algebra 1 or Algebra 1B will be together.
What are your thoughts on this? Is it a good idea in your opinion? What are the pro's and con's?

What have you learned in Algebra this semester?
As we approach the end of the first semester I would like you to reflect on what you have learned.
Please choose a topic we studied and explain it; what it is, how you approach the problem (if applicable), where it could be used outside of math class, do you find it confusing or straightforward .... Your comments should be clear and concise so that anyone reading it (not just your math teacher) could understand what you are explaining.
