8th Grade Math: Today in math students began class with the Problem of the Day.  Next, students jumped into the textbook and we began talking and learning about variable expressions.  After some teacher led instruction and several example problems, students were assigned the section 1.1 worksheet (odds only) as homework to be due Friday in class.  

Assignments:  The section 1.1 worksheet (odds only) is due Friday in class.  Review Homework #3 is due Friday in class.  

7th Grade Math: Today in math students began class with the Do Now and a simple word problem to get them started.  Next, students reviewed their knowledge of place value and they took notes in cornell note fashion.  After some teacher led instruction and several examples, students ended class with a summary of what was presented to them during class.

Assignments:  Review Homework #3 is due Friday in class. 

Science: Today in science students began class with the Do Now.  Next, students partnered up and we went outside on the trail in order to collect plant leaf specimens.  Students were instructed to gather as many details as possible from the plant they collect a leaf from in order to help them identify that plant tomorrow from a plant identification book.   

Assignments:  Students have been asked to come into class on Friday with a descriptive paragraph about any object that doesn't give that object away.  Students will read their descriptive paragraphs with their table groups tomorrow in class.
