Wednesday February 2, 2011

8th Grade Math: Today in math, students were introduced to chapter 5 and section one on rational numbers. Students began learning about strategies to convert fractions to decimals and vise versa.

Assignments: Review HW #4 is due on Friday.

7th Grade Math: Today students began class by using their flashmasters. We then moved right back into section 5.3 on multiplying fractions and mixed numbers. Today we reviewed the rules for multiplying fractions and mixed numbers, before students were handed a worksheet to practice their skills.

Assignments: Review HW #5 is due Friday. Complete the 5.3 worksheet for Thursday.

Science: Today in science students took part in a class survey, detailing different traits that are past down from parents. The learning objective of class again today was for students to be able to tell the difference between dominant and recessive alleles (genes). We also introduced the next activity that is going to be dealing with the genetic profiles of a Spongebob Squarepants character.

Assignments: None.
