8th Grade Math: Today in math students began class with the Problem of the Day.  Next, students continued working with and writing numbers in scientific notation, product form and standard form.  After grading homework and answering a few questions, students went to the computer lab and were given the opportunity to explore some identified math websites and games, approved by Mr. Olsen.  Students were asked to evaluate the site or game they visited in order to better understand what was being asked of them.  

Students can expect a quiz on the the final three sections of chapter 4 on Friday in class.  The chapter 4 test is scheduled for Tuesday of next week.
