Today the student and I worked on understanding the relationship between positive and negative numbers for her math class. We also continued working on her Apache tribe project for English and social studies. She showed a lot of creativity and attention to detail. I was very pleased with her work today. I want her to continue working on distinguishing between absolute value and the value of the negative numbers.

The student has a test on Friday that covers their Ch 9 on transformations. This includes translations, reflections, and stretching/shrinking while using the two parent functions y=x^2 and y=abs(x). I made a practice test for him that had a total of 40 questions. The questions were composed of a variety of types: given function and transformations performed graph the result, given the graph name the function and the transformations performed, given the parent and list of transformations write the equation, etc. I also included a series of questions in which he had to evaluate a function at a given value of x, which his last homework had a few of these types of questions. Overall, he did very well on this practice test. He made a few mistakes on evaluating functions that included absolute values. I noticed he made a similar mistake on his previous homework, so I made sure to include this type of problem to help prepare him.
His teacher also provided them with a review worksheet, which we talked through together. Overall, I'm quite confident that he's going to do well on this test if he takes his time and double checks for mistakes.
