Tuesday

Sixth Grade

Today, the class did not have a regular lesson. Everyone seemed to be struggling with measuring so I printed out some extra practice on a worksheet. Also, I wrote 5 lengths on the board and the students need to draw lines that measure each length. After completing that, do Supplemental lesson 16. You can find this at the back of your textbook.

Seventh Grade

Spelling - Work the second two pages in the book.

Vocabulary - We read through the words for Unit 3 today. The assignment is to write 10 sentences using the words. The cards will be due on Monday and the unit will be due on Tuesday.

Literature - The class took a Selection Test over "Ransom of Red Chief" today.

Grammar - pg. 300. Complete the Exercise and the DWS on THIS page only! Follow instructions. (Most students finished in class.)

Math - Lesson 2-1. Work the front page only of the lesson.
Here are a few examples:


Eighth Grade

Today, we continued working with powers of exponents. Do #3-39 evens from Lesson 1-13. Look back at yesterday's examples for help. And remember, do not leave negative exponents! Also, everything inside a parenthesis is being raised to the exponent that is on the outside.

See you tomorrow!
