We are now finished with algebra and moving on to geometry.

Next week Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday all sixth graders at Woodworth will be taking the NWEA reading.

Next week Thursday and Friday all sixth graders at Woodworth will be taking the NWEA math.

 

Students have been practicing hard all year in class and using Khan academy.  Please ask your students about how we plugged in our NWEA Winter math scores into something called mappers.  Then the students are able to practice at their own level which is proven to help them show growth in their scores.

 

In class we are working on Lesson 20 inequalities.   We will take the quiz on this next week Wednesday.

Parents…

Please check with your students to make sure they have enough paper, pencils, pens, glue sticks ect.  We are spending too much time in class searching for these things

Please have your student eat a good breakfast and go to bed on time tonight and tomorrow.  We will be having  MSTEP language arts on Thursday and MSTEP math on Friday.

This week we finished lesson 18 and took a quiz on Thursday.  Students will practice an online version of the MSTEP Thursday, Friday and a few days next week.

Next week the 6th grade will be taking the MSTEP Thursday and Friday.  Make sure your child gets a good nights sleep.

Important note:  Starting this week. Students will be required to complete 60 minutes of Khan Academy.  I will try to give them some time in class to start, but many of the minutes will have to be completed at home.   Each week the window will be from Monday morning to Sunday night.
