Math 7 Information
"It’s great to be back at school with the students." -Ms. Anderson
Math 7 took their second quiz last week and should have gotten them back by now. If your student made less than 70% PLEASE encourage them to come to tutoring for a retake. They can make up to 90% on the retake. Also any math 7 student can do a retake to improve their grade up to 90% even if they made more than 70% on the original quiz. We are continuing to work on using proportions and finding the constant of proportionality, k, as in y = kx. The next test is Thursday, September 24 over RU Proportional. They will have a review to study, so ask them to show it to you J.
Math Honors 7 Information
Our next Unit called "Ship Shape and Angles Away" will be focusing on Transformations. This will be an active unit we are sure your kids will love to show the family at home. Perhaps some fun family activities can be used with this material. Kids are encouraged to come in for re-tests, to redo assignments, and for tutoring if necessary. If Mrs. Anderson room (room C112) is not at school please stop by Ms. Burnett's room (room c113) and vice versa for help.
Math Rocks 7 Information
The Algebraic Models and Functions TEST will be on Monday, September 21, 2015. The test will cover ALL concepts learned so far this year. The students will need to look over Units 1.1 2.1-4.3 in their textbook.
Hint Hint: Students may want to also look over old Concept Check, Quizzes, and Quiz & Concept Check Retakes. We will have a REVIEW day prior to the test.
I know the kids and I are glad the homework load has gotten better as well. Normal homework is to complete as needed for extra practice problems. The only required problems are the lesson performance tasks and HOT questions. Concept checks will be given weekly to assess comprehension of concepts.
