Week of 10-8-12

Hello!

Math reminders: All students should be working on ALEKS throughout the week. The sixth grade students are expected to complete 10 objectives. The seventh grade students are expected to complete 12 objectives. The eighth grade students are expected to complete 15 objectives. If the student completes their weekly objectives goal, they will have their lowest grade dropped at the end of the month. Each student should also continue to practice their basic math skills on FirstInMath.com.

The sixth grade students jumped right into Investigation 2 of Data About Us. They are working really hard and having a fun time learning about bar graphs, line plots, stem and leaf plots, and coordinate graphs. The seventh grade students are moving right through with fractions, inequalities, and absolute value. The eighth grade students are tackling the Pythagorean Theorem, as well as 30-60-90 triangles. The end of the grading period was 10-11-12.

See you next week,

Miss P
