Resources for final exam review

Can you believe it?  The semester is almost over.  As the semester ends, I wanted to share our plan to review for the final exam.

What will be covered on the final exam?
The final will cover all of the objectives that we've explored this semester.  We've organized these objectives into three thematic units:

1. Single-variable equations
2. Systems of equations
3. Patterns, predictions, and functions

Students should have three "self-assessment" guides, one for each unit, that list all of the objectives associated with these units.  The guides are taped in the front of their notebooks.

Our review plan
We probably won't be able to devote class time to reviewing for the final exam.  Instead, students will have review homework assignments, and then I'll conduct after-school review sessions to address the topics covered on the review assignments.  The review assignments can be found in the "daily activities, notes, and HW" link in the "class links" box on the right, and the calendar below gives the overall plan:
