Monday: Khan Academy: 2 assignments due Tomorrow, 30 minutes per night. IXL: J.5-J.9 is due Monday 11/4. Please do a couple problems from each of the J assignments tonight so that if you have questions, you can ask me tomorrow!

Tuesday: Khan Academy: 2 assignments due Tomorrow + 30 minutes per night. IXL: J.5-J.9 is due Monday 11/4. There will be a quiz on Unit Rate, GCF, LCM, and Adding/Subtracting Fractions with ReGrouping on Thursday 10/31.

Friday: Khan Academy: There were 12 assignments that were assigned on Tuesday. Be sure they are completed by Monday morning. IXL: J.5, J.6, J.7, J.8, and J.9 were assigned on Monday and are due Monday morning. All new quizzes and tests will appear on the next card marking, as many students have not yet finished them. Make sure to have 150 minutes total for 10/28 – 11/3 on Khan Academy and continue working towards the 45% of the mission. The Turkey Plotting Points Activity will be due to me, beautifully colored in, by Wednesday. Enjoy your weekend!

This link will take you to a Google Doc with helpful information to help you with your IXL assignments. I will continue to add to it as I have time.

Monday: IXL I.9, J.1, and J.3 Due Tomorrow. Khan Academy: 2 assignments (adding/subtracting fractions with unlike denominators) Due Tomorrow. IXL J.2, J.4, R.12, R.13, and R.15 Due Thursday. Students should continue to spend 30+ minutes per night completing the 6th grade mission.

First Hour: Mehdi, Shahd, Jameelah, Yusif, and Ayah- for some reason you are not on my roster. Please go through Clever as usual, go to “Teachers” and put in this code: EPTFKDAN. If it does not work, I will fix it tomorrow morning when I see you! I think this happened accidentally when I was trying to delete the old accounts so that I only had the Clever Accounts on my list. Please don’t worry!

Tuesday: Remember, 30 minutes per night spent working on the mission = 150 points at the end of the week. 25% by the end of November is the minimum, but I think we should easily be able to get to 40% by the end of November. Continue to study Adding and Subtracting Fractions with unlike denominators, equivalent ratios, and unit rate. No ADDITIONAL assignments tonight- just be sure IXL J2, J4, R12, R13, and R15 are done by Thursday, and any old assignments are completed tonight as I will be adding in more grades. Fifth Hour Only: Instruction book pgs. 20-21.

Wednesday: All hours- make sure IXL J2, J4, R12, R13, and R15 are done. First Hour: Pgs. 24-25 in the instruction book. Second Hour: Pgs. 23, 24, and 25. Fifth Hour: pgs. 24-25. PINK OUT TOMORROW! WEAR PINK AND BRING A DOLLAR TO DONATE TO CANCER FOUNDATION! $$ gets turned in to your first hour teacher!

Thursday: ALL HOURS: Practice book pages 19-26 and a half hour of working on the Khan mission. Everything else online should have already been done. Quizzes tomorrow will be on Adding and Subtracting Fractions with Unlike Denominators (no regrouping!) and on Lesson 3: Equivalent Ratios. Click on the link to the file below to see the answer key for tonight’s assignment!

Monday: All old Khan Academy assignments need to be COMPLETED to 100%. Khan Academy this week: focus on the MISSION. You need to reach 25% completion by the end of November. From now on, students should be spending a minimum of 30 minutes per night on Khan Academy 6th grade mission. IXL for this week is I.1 thru I.8 and R.1-R.11.

Wednesday: Finish the study guide that we started in class. We will check it tomorrow. Any students missing Khan Academy assignments by Friday morning will be staying after school on Friday from 3-5 to make up missing work.

Monday– Khan Assignments for the week have been posted. There are 10 of them. Quiz is Friday. 1st Hour- be sure to bring your fixed and signed emergency cards in ASAP. IXL this week will be section B, all of it, due Monday, if you would like to get started.

Wednesday– IXL Assignment R.8 ONLY due tomorrow, not the whole section R!!

Thursday- GCF of monomials on IXL Algebra 1 AA.1- practice it for Thursday 10/17, 50% minimum, 90 or higher will be extra credit! Students that do not have R.8 completed tomorrow will be assigned a detention. 6th grade expectations are that homework is completed on time, with 100% effort, and accuracy.

Tuesday: The following Khan Assignments are due Friday (GCF, LCM, and Equivalent Ratios). They are under Assignments under Current. The following IXL assignments are due Monday (R1, R2, R3, E3, E4, E4 New!, E7, E8, E9, and E10). Some students were asking if they could do all of section E since we will have to complete it eventually and the answer is YES! You can always go above and beyond to improve your education!! As a reminder, the quizzes will be on Friday: IXL Section A (except Roman numerals), Ratios, and GCF. Please have your parents sign your progress report and return it to me tomorrow!

Thursday: Remember, if you have late work to give me, it goes in the homework bin! I will check the bin about once per week. First hour students need to make sure that their parents fix any mistakes on the Emergency Card then sign the back and turn it in as soon as possible. Reminder that the 3 Khan Assignments are due tomorrow and the IXL is due Monday. If you need to complete any Khan Academy LATE assignments, you need to sign in through CLEVER, click on Assignments, then click on Past to see the late work and complete it. Tomorrow you will have 2 quizzes: one on GCF (I suggest you study on IXL) and one on Ratios (see your study guide). Tomorrow you will work on your Factor List 1-100 after both quizzes, BOTH SIDES, are complete. If it is not finished in class, it will be due tomorrow. It needs to be finished before it can be traded for the extra credit word search. Have a nice weekend.
