Tuesday, February 22nd

Sixth Grade

Spelling - Unit 23 was due today.

Literature - We began reading "Lob's Girl". We will finish tomorrow.

Math - Practice Test. The class can earn 50 extra credit points by finding problems from the book like each of the practice test problems, writing the Lesson and problem number, and working the problem. It's a lot of work, but 50 points is a lot of extra credit! Plus, it'll be extra practice on the problems that'll be on the test. Email me if you have any questions.

Seventh Grade

Math - Lesson 65. Ratio word problems with totals. Remember when you make your ratio box, that you include a third row for the TOTAL. Also, remember that the total under the ratio column will be the original ratio added together. So, if something has a ratio of 3 to 5. Then the total for the ratio would be 8.
