Sixth Grade
Literature - The students took a Selection Test today. There is no homework!
Spelling - Unit 4 was due today and the students took the Spelling test. No homework!
Math - Lesson 18 - Average and line graphs. Remember, to find the average of a group of numbers, add up all the numbers and divide by how many numbers you added. If you are supposed to find a number halfway between two numbers, that is the same as finding the average. So, you would add the two numbers and divide the sum by two. For the line graphs, remember to read the scale along the left side of the graph carefully, so you know what the interval is.
Seventh Grade
Literature - The class took a Selection Test today. No homework!
Spelling - Unit 5 is due on Friday! Be sure you are working on it and studying the words!
Vocabulary - Please begin working on the cards for Unit 3. We will go over the words and write ten sentences tomorrow.
Math - We did the Capture the Flag activity today! The class used giant protractors taped to boxes to measure the angles to various country flags set up in the parking lot. We will take the information from the activity today and make graphs (or maps of the flags). Whoever gets the most number of points for being the most accurate, wins and dominates the world!
Eighth Grade
Both classes participated in the Capture the Flag activity described in the 7th grade math section. Please remember that Lesson 16 is due tomorrow!
See you then!
