BOOK PROJECTS- LAST ONE FOR THE YEAR- DUE MAY 14
The last Book Project for the year will be due May 14th. Presentations will be on the 14th thru the 17th. We will start the summaries in class, students will finish them up at home. This has been a fun project and I've been amazed at the creativity of our class.
What's Happening in Math Right Now?
We have started Unit 11 and will squeeze Unit 12 in before the year ends. Unit 11 will discuss volume and measurement. Both topics are things we have discussed earlier in the year, but this will take it to a little different level.
Unit 12 will introduce rates, graphing data, and unit pricing.
