8th Grade Math:  Today in math students reviewed adding and subtracting like fractions.  We graded the 5.2 worksheet as a class, before students were introduced to section 5.3 and adding and subtracting UNlike fractions and mixed numbers.  Mr. Olsen provided direct instruction, before leading the students through several example problems.  
Assignments:  Review HW #5 is due on Wednesday. 
7th Grade Math: Today students began class by using their flashmasters.   We then moved back into chapter 5 and graded the section four worksheet as a class.  We then moved into section 5 and introduce the U.S. customary system of measurement to students.  We had a class discussion concerning the differences between the metric system and US customary system, before having students participate in a mini scavenger hunt, looking for objects of certain length using a ruler.
Assignments: Review HW #5 is due Wednesday.
