Sixth Grade
Changing decimals to fractions. Remember, "IF YOU CAN SAY IT, YOU CAN WRITE IT!" First, say the number correctly using the right place value. The assignment includes only tenths and hundredths. Once you say it aloud, you can write it as a fraction using 10 or 100 in the denominator. Then, you must reduce the fraction if it can be reduced. Don't forget this step!
Seventh Grade
Math - Today, we worked in class on symmetry and messed around with some interesting shapes to create more shapes. There is no homework, but if you can recreate any of the shapes on the paper using ALL the pieces, I will give you 10 points extra credit.
Geography - We took notes over Sections 1 & 2 of Chapter 11 today. We will continue notes tomorrow. There is no homework!
Eighth Grade
Pre-Algebra - Percent of Change. Remember, first find the difference between the two numbers. Then divide that number by the FIRST number. The number that is FIRST on your sheet will go outside the box and the number you get when you subtract will go inside the box. Put a decimal point after the number inside the box and then add 4 zeros. Divide until you run out of zeros. Round to the third place after the decimal. Then, move the decimal two places to the right. This is your percent.
You must show all your work on notebook paper. You can use a calculator for assistance, but the long division must be on the paper or I will not accept it tomorrow.
Algebra I - Multiplying special case polynomials. Everyone did very well today. If you have questions, please email me!
See you tomorrow,
Mrs. Swickey
