I am reposting the message below.

Please remind each other to purchase the Barron's Integrated Algebra Book ASAP (as soon as possible) and begin reviewing for the regents. The review book should be available at most bookstores and online from the Barron's.

8th Grade Vacation Packets

You will be given a practice test over the February break to review for the 8th grade state test.

Tips:
Book 1 Answers should be recorded on two Answer Sheets (one for your records and one that you will hand in)
Book 2 and 3 Attempt all questions. You should not leave any questions blank.
Review all your answers and read all directions carefully.
Try your best!

To help better prepare you review the 8th grade content strands below.

Online graphing calculator application

For the Integrated Algebra Regents you will be required to use a graphing calculator. There is an online graphing calculator application that you can download or you can purchase one to practice with. If you have an older sibling check with them, as they might already have one you can borrow.

Online graphing calculator application: http://education.ti.com/educationportal/sites/US/productDetail/us_sdk_73_83_84.html Before you download the calculator be sure to ask for permission from your parent/guardian.

The application is a little confusing at first, but if you follow the directions carefully you can get a virtual graphing calculator (similar to the one I use in class on the Smartboard).

Steps:Click download (underneath the picture of the calculator) and Click the TI-83 Plus SDK Run
Once the application is download
Open up the application
File newSelect TI-83 PlusView Calculator
Debug Go
Your calculator should be fully functional. Enjoy practicing with your virtual calculator!

Disclaimer
The application is from Texas Instruments and I assume no liability relating to the application. Before downloading any applications be sure to read all information relating to the download. If you have downloaded the application please share your thoughts with the rest of the class.
