Thursday, September 15th

If you haven't heard yet, Mrs. Lofties was named Catholic School Teacher of the Year for the Archdiocese! We are all so proud of her as she is so deserving. Congratulations Mrs. Lofties!

Sixth Grade

Today, we continued working on division. Some students practiced with multiples of 10 and others worked on 2 digit divisors.

Seventh Grade

Math - I passed out a set of questions related to the two double bar graphs the class made on Wednesday. The students answered the questions by interpreting their graphs and recognizing which graph would contain the information they needed. Everyone finished in class and turned it in.

Geography - We read Chapter 3, Section 4. The class copied down and filled in graphic organizers on economic and political systems. You need to finish reading the section and fill in the graphic organizer for types of government. Then, define the words at the end of the section.

Eighth Grade

Pre-Algebra: We reviewed decimal place value, comparing, ordering, and rounding decimals. The homework is to complete the worksheet on these topics.

Algebra I: More practice on combining like terms and distributive property. Remember to distribute the negative sign if that's all that is in front of a set of parenthesis! As always, email me if you have any questions.

See you on Monday!

Mrs. Swickey
