An update has been long over due! This year is flying by and I think we are all looking forward to warmer weather and sunshine. I am very proud of my students.
7th grade has completed tests on slope and we are moving on into the world of geometry. This week we have focused on reviewing the basics such as perimeter, area, and volume. In the coming weeks we are going to be learning about angles and then applying those skills to determine the similarity of triangles.
6th grade has been working hard learning the building blocks of algebra. What is a variable? Solving algebraic expressions and solving equations. We are taking our test tomorrow and will turn our focus on learning to plot points on a coordinate grid.
8th grade spend some time reviewing slope and then learning about slope-intercept form. They graphed equations and plotted the slope of many many lines. We are now focusing on angles and will begin learning about the Pythagorean theorem next week.
