Today’s homework is pages 89-90 in the PPS (orange book)
The marking period ends Friday, January 18 with a 1/2 day.
This week I will have redo tests for Lessons 7 and 8 on Wednesday afterschool. Students must have 90% of their homework turned in to be invited to take any redo tests.
The students will need to complete 60 minutes of KHAN for the dates Dec 17 to Dec 23.
Then over the break from Dec 24 to Jan 6 they will need to complete 60 minutes of Khan . This is to make sure the students keep their math skills sharp because we will be taking the Winter NWEA test in January. I will be conferencing with each student this week to look at their Fall NWEA scores and tell them what areas I want them to focus in on over break. For most students their areas that need the most practice are statistics and geometry.
No quiz this week. Just NWEA review, minute to win it reward, winter concert, adding decimals, and a field trip on Friday.
Students will need to continue completing 60 minutes of Khan Academy this week
We will be completing Lesson 8 – Division of Whole Numbers
