Math
Last week, students learned how to model mixed number division (lesson 2.8) and divided mixed numbers (lesson 2.9). They also worked on problem solving with fraction operations at the end of the week. They have two assignments that are due on Monday. They are page 117 (2-7)/page 118(1-6), and page 123(2-11)/page 124(1-6). On Monday, we will go through any questions from these assignments before collecting.
This week, students will be reviewing for their test at the end of the week. Students will not have math class on Tuesday or Wednesday. Therefore, they will have Monday and Thursday to prepare for the test. Students will begin the test during the 2nd half of class on Thursday and finish it on Friday.

We will continue learning about the continent of Africa. We will focus on the Five Themes of Geography while learning about the different countries on the African continent.
