Wednesday, September 14th

Sixth Grade

Today we practiced on division by 2 digits. Just do the front of the worksheet I sent home and please don't stress if you are struggling! I will help anyone who needs it tomorrow - or you can email me if you get stuck.

Seventh Grade

Math - Finish both double bar graphs tonight! One is on total number of students in each grade for both last year and this year. The other is on number of boys and girls per grade for this year. Remember the following parts:

Label the x-axis
Label the y-axis
Title the graph
Include a key

Make sure the distance between each set of bars is the same. Also, make sure the interval on the y-axis makes sense.

Geography - Chapter 3, Section 3. We spent time discussing what culture is today. Then define the words at the end of the section.

Eighth Grade

Pre-Algebra: We spent our time in class continuing the lesson from yesterday and discussed the number of calories burned in 5 minutes, 10 minutes, etc. We then graphed the results and discussed parts of a graph. The only homework was to do the multiplication necessary for #4 on the Cartoon Corner page.

Algebra I - Combining Like Terms and Simplifying Expressions. Here are some examples:

I hope that helps! If not, please email me.

See you tomorrow!
