Sixth Grade
Math - Lesson 2 - Multiplication of whole numbers and money. Multiplication and division fact families. I'm not giving examples as everyone knew what they were doing! We are off to a terrific start in 6th grade math. I'm looking forward to our first day for Literature and Spelling on Monday. Have a great weekend! (Be sure to email me if you are stuck.)
Seventh Grade
Language Arts - "Sorry Sentences". Everyone should have written down the five sentences from the board. Please change them to be more interesting and not BORING! Remember, you can change the words in the sentence and add adjectives or adverbs. You must keep the same meaning of the sentence. So, for the first one, "The cat slept", you must still have a sleeping cat in the sentence, and whether or not you use the word "cat" or "sleep" is up to you!
Literature - We continued discussing the summer reading, Hatchet, today. We will finish up reviewing the book on Monday and there will be a test over the book on Wednesday.
Math - Lesson 2. This lesson introduces a lot of new material. Because there were a still a few things to go over when class ended, you do not have to complete the entire lesson by Monday. Please work on it, use your MiniMath notes for help, and skip any problems you don't know. On Monday, we will go over the few remaining examples from the lesson and you will have until the end of class to turn it in.
I am very pleased with what a great start we've had to the school year! Thank you for all your hard work.
Eighth Grade
Both groups have Lesson 2 as the assignment. The concepts covered in the lessons reviewed skills previously learned. I won't post any examples, but as always, please email me if you have questions! I also want to say thank you to the 8th grade. You guys are setting a great standard in class by working hard and using the class time so well. I've been proud of you!
Have a great weekend!
See you Monday......
Mrs. Swickey
