1. Page 16 Prob 2.1
2. Warm Up - Stem and leaf plot

OBJECTIVE: •To develop a strategy for finding the volume of a rectangular prism by filling it with unit cubes. and to recognize that the number of cubes in the bottom layer is equal to the area of the base •To determine that the total number of unit cubes in a rectangular prism is erqual to the area of the base times the height (the volume), and to discover that this strategy works for any prism •To learn that the surface area of a prism is the sum of the areas of its faces, and to apply this strategy to any right prism •To reason about problems involving volume and surface area. [1.2.4, 1.2.5] ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Page 16 Prob 2.1 - determine the rectangular prism which can be constructed from 24 cubes? what is the surface area? NOTES: Use cubes Homework: P19 #1, P20 #7

2. Graphs review

OBJECTIVE: PS03 (Data Representation and Interpretation) Read and interpret data represented in histograms, single line graphs, stem-and-leaf plots, scatter plots, and box-and-whisker plots and determine when using these graphs is appropriate; demonstrate understanding of how different representations of the same set of data can support different points of view (1.4.5, 1.4.6) ACTIVITIES/ASSESSMENT: Graphs review - especially stem and lean and box and whisker plots NOTES: Homework: TBA
