Hello, parents. My name is Joey Lawrence and I will be teaching your student’s Algebra 2 class this year. I have been teaching since my years at the University of Central Florida and really enjoy teaching math to mature young minds. If you have any questions for my please feel free to contact me at j.lawrence@schoolemail.com or give me a call at 321-289-0782 ext. 2265
Class News and Information for the week of April 22
This week is devoted to slope! We will be covering different concepts of lines and how they relate to each other. Students have been given a website to follow along with each lesson as it is given. Feel free to familiarize yourself with the website at http://mrlawrence-algebra.wikispaces.com
I really like this picture because it is a creative way to show the different directions of different slopes.
I have taken the time to create a little video to help the students become more familiar with this vocabulary. You can view the video on youtube by searching my name with slope. I hope this will be a memorable way to introduce this vocabulary.
Activities of the Week This week plays host to a number of in-class activities to make the students active learners in the classroom. The students will choose objects around the room and apply them to our lesson. They will create stories and creative problems to solve with a partner. I hope to pique their interest in math and have them actively participate in the learning process.
!!!There will be a test on Friday of this week, April 26 and will cover everything we do this week. Students should review the online study guide provided periodically throughout the week. Good luck!!

I look forward to a strong week to finish out this month. There will be take home assignments all this week and students are to keep up with the information as we go as I have given them all the information they need. Please contact me by email or phone should you have any questions.
The essence of mathematics is not to make simple things complicated, but to make complicated things simple.
