8th Grade Math: Students began class with the problem of the day before being introduced to chapter 4 and factors and prime factorization. Today was all about teacher instruction and several example problems for students to get the vocabulary down as well as an understanding of the difference between factors and multiples.

Assignments: Review Homework #23 is due Friday. Cumulative Test part II is due Monday Dec. 13th.

7th Grade Math: Today students began class with their flashmasters before jumping back into chapter 4, section 3. Today was a quick review of equivalent fractions, before students were handed a worksheet to practice their skills with Mr. Olsen available to provide assistance as needed in class.

Assignments: Review Homework #24 is due Friday. Finish up the 4.3 worksheet if they did not finish up in the class time provided.
