Math 7

FYI: Students receiving non masteries or partial mastery in any topics will be assigned an after school review session to bring up the scores.

Monday- Students will review multiplying and dividing fractions. Students will be introduced to our cookie project.  They will be given a cookie recipe and they will have to manipulate the recipe to find how much of each ingredient they will need if they double, triple, and divide the recipe in half.

Homework- http://math.about.com/library/multfractions.pdf
http://math.about.com/library/divfractions.pdf

Tuesday- Students will be grouped based on need into 3 groups: Simplifying, Mixed and Improper Fractions, and Word problems. Students will work today to review these 6th grade concepts to help them multiply and divide fractions.

Accelerated Math 10/15

Starting this week, any student with a partial or a non mastery will be required to stay after school at least twice for 30 minutes each to bring up their grade.

Monday- Students will learn how to solve multi-step equations.This will require solving and simplifying.

Homework- http://www.kutasoftware.com/FreeWorksheets/Alg2Worksheets/Solving%20Multi-Step%20Equations.pdf (first page only)

Tuesday Students will be grouped today based on the quiz scores from last Friday.  Students will be grouped into 3 groups: Simplifying Expressions, Solving Equations, Word Problems.  Students will review the areas that they didn't receive mastery. Students will be able to retest on Wednesday.

Homework will depend on which group your child is working on.

Wednesday- Students will work on matching equations and word problems together. Many students struggle with creating an equation so this will be our focus today.

Homework- http://www.mathx.net/downloads/two-step_equations_word_problems/MATHX.NET-Two-step_equations-word_problems-integers-medium.pdf (page 1 only)

Friday- Students will take a quiz over solving multi-step equations. Students will also take retake quizzes fro areas of non/partial mastery.

Algebra 10/15

Monday- Students will review slope and practice finding the slope of a line.

Homework- a worksheet over slope. This can be found on edmodo.com

Tuesday- Students will learn about slope intercept form by matching slope, graphs, equations, and y intercept of 4 graphs.

Homework- page 294 1-3, 10-12, 22-24

Wednesday- Students will continue to practice using slope intercept form.

Homework page 294 13-15, 25-31

Thursday- Students will practice using graphing calculators to graph equations/word problems.

Homework page 294 32-35, 40, 57, 58

Friday- Students will take a quiz over slope intercept form.

Edmodo

When we come back from Fall Break, I plan on utilizing the website www.edmodo.com for in and out of class assignments. If you do not have an account, then go create one for yourself. It is very similar to Facebook so most students should be able to figure it out. Put in the code for your class to join.
