Thursday, April 19, 2018 Permission slips and money due tomorrow for field trip!
The FINAL day to bring in your permission slip and money for the field trip is tomorrow!
Geometry: We discovered the area of a triangle by composing a rectangle or square and then using the formula. Homework is to complete practice of finding area of squares, rectangles and triangles (see homework attachments).
Khan Academy is 15 minutes due tomorrow. The following topics are assigned this week and minutes can be completed with those skills or time can be spent on skills that haven’t been completed or mastered yet.
- Independent vs Dependent Variables
- Tables from equations with 2 variables
- Match equations to coordinates on a line
- Relationships between quantities in equations and graphs
Keep working/playing on Prodigy to complete your assignment by April 30!

We are using S.L.O.T. time this month to review and prepare for the M-Step. Remember to bring your M-Step folder to class every day! We also created accounts with a new on-line program named Prodigy. The link is on the blog under class links or go to prodigygame.com/play . Prodigy is a game but gives questions at your level, based on standards or based on test prep-like questions. Play at home and complete 100 questions by April 30.
We are starting the Geometry unit. For homework, finish writing the Geometry list #1 vocabulary in the back of your ISN. You can find the list and the definitions on the blog under the Vocabulary tab.
